What is the Jewish hat?

Answer 1

The kippah is the Hebrew name for the skullcap that Jewish men wear and the majority of Jews use this word. Another name is yarmulke, which is Yiddish.

It is used to show respect to God as Jews believe God is always above them, watching.

Answer 2

Answer
Yarmulke or Kippah or skull cap are all ways religious believers in the Jewish faith remind themselves that God is always above them and they should remember his commandments and rules and be good people.

Answer 3

Jewish males cover their heads with a kippa and/or a hat, as a reminder of the presence of God. This practice is twice mentioned emphatically in the Talmud (Shabbat 156b; Kallah 1:16), in statements dating back 1700 and 1850 years, respectively. Even then, covering one's head is spoken of as an established practice, not something new.
The Yiddish word for kippah, "yarmulkah," is a contraction of the Aramaic "yerei malkah": to be aware of the King.
Note that Jewish married women traditionally cover their hair (Talmud, Ketubot 72b) with a sheitel (wig) or a tichel (kerchief). This is for the purpose of modesty - only her husband should see her beauty - since the hair is considered beautiful (Talmud, Berakhot 24a).
