True or false- is a Jewish place of worship a synagogue or a temple?

A multiple-choice question cannot be answered with 'true' or 'false'. Jewish places of group-worship are called synagogues. Some Reform and Conservative Jews call them temples. But individual prayer can take place in any place the individual chooses, if it's consistent with the mood, decorum, and holiness of prayer. While 'synagogue' is exclusively used to refer to Jewish houses of worship, 'temple' can be used to connote a synagogue or a Shinto, Buddhist, Confucian, or other Asian house of worship (in which a Jew may not pray, on account of the idols present).
