Do all Jews know Hebrew?
NO. Do Christians only speak English? More seriously, though, most Jews speak the lingua franca or official language(s) of their country of birth or residence. For example, most American, Canadian (aside from Quebec), and British Jews speak English. Most Quebecois and French Jews speak French. Most Argentine and Mexican Jews speak Spanish. Most Russian and Ukrainian Jews speak Russian. Many also speak Jewish languages, of which Hebrew is just one of many, including: Yiddish, Ladino, Yevanic, and Judeo-Arabic.

What makes a Jew 'Modern Orthodox'?
Modern Orthodox Jews consider themselves bound by the 613 commandments in the Torah as understood by the unbroken rabbinical tradition from biblical times to the present. In this regard, they agree with Hassidic Jews. Modern Orthodoxy generally accepts the role of modern science and engages vigorously with the secular world. Where Hassidic Jews dress very distinctively and frequently minimize their contact with the secular community, modern Orthodox Jews are likely to blend into a crowd, with perhaps only a kippah (yarmulke) identifying them as Jews. Where Hassidic Jews view a yeshiva education as normal, Modern Orthodox Jews go to universities and graduate programs -- although significant numbers attend Yeshiva University, an Orthodox university.

Do Jewish men go only to Orthodox synagogues?
Orthodox Jewish men go only to Orthodox synagogues. Non-Orthodox Jewish men would be likely to go to non-Orthodox places of worship. In Israel, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States, there are prevalent numbers of non-Orthodox or Liberal synagogues. As a result, people in those places who are themselves Liberal can often find a Liberal synagogue in which to worship. Outside of those four countries, it is very rare to find a Liberal synagogue, so Jews of all religiousities (both Liberal and Orthodox) go to Orthodox synagogues for prayer, but will not perform all of the Orthodox Mitzvot when not in synagogue.
