• The word is written in the Hebrew Bible either without vocalisation or as יְהֹוָה, using the vocalization of the word אֲדֹנָי‎ (adonái, “my Lord”), because of the prohibition of uttering the name. It is thought that the original pronunciation was probably lost around the Hellenistic era. In some cases, when preceded by the word אֲדֹנָי‎ (adonái, “my Lord”), it is written as יֱהֹוִה, using the vocalization of the word אֱלֹהִים‎ (elohím, “God”).
• Secular Jews in Israel pronounce the word as אדוני \ אֲדֹנָי‎ (adonái) usually, under most circumstances.
• Religious Jews pronounce it as אֲדֹנָי‎ (adonái, “my Lord”) only for liturgical purposes, otherwise they use other terms such as הַשֵּׁם‎ (hashém, “the name”).
• Samaritans pronounce it as ࠔࠝࠌࠠࠀ‎ (š'mā, “the name”) — from שְׁמָא‎ (šəmā, “the name”), the Aramaic equivalent of הַשֵּׁם‎ (hashém) — under all circumstances, even in liturgy.
• Although Jews would not be likely to use the Tetragrammaton to refer to the Christian God, Hebrew-speaking Christians may, and it is used in translations of the New Testament.
