'''Hallelujah''', '''Halleluyah''', or '''Alleluia''', is a transliteration of the Hebrew word הַלְלוּיָהּ meaning "praise (הַלְּלוּ) Yah (יָהּ)." It is found mainly in the book of [[Psalms]] and has a similar pronunciation in many, but not all, languages. The word is used in Judaism as part of the Hallel prayers, and in Christian praise. It has been accepted into the English language, but its Latin form '''Alleluia''' is used by many English-speaking Christians in preference to Hallelujah.
