What do Jews say a when they are at the wailing wall?
There is no such thing as a wailing wall. This is a misnomer imposed by non-Jewish people who misunderstood the dinstinctive style of Jewish prayer, and thought it was wailing.You are most likely referring to the Western Wall in Jerusalem.The Western Wall was built as part of the expansion of the 2nd Jewish Temple, approximate 20 BCE. It is a retaining wall of the Temple mount that was built by King Herod.Jews generally say prayers at the Western Wall, and there is a tradition of placing notes inside the wall's cracks.Answer:Its not only what Jews say. The Wall and Jerusalem is a holy place for 3 major religions (even though it is looked as for the Jews). When Jews go to the wall they put a message inside and pray. They read the bibles [note: this is not true. Jews Generally read from prayerbooks or the Torah at the Wall], say a prayer for a loved one (dead or alive), say there wishes, etc. Anyone can say whatever they want to say.
