The Tetragrammaton refers to the four Hebrew letters YHWH (יְהוָ֨ה), which represent the name of God in the Hebrew Bible. It is often transliterated as "Yahweh" or "Jehovah." The term itself comes from the Greek words "tetra," meaning four, and "gramma," meaning letter, highlighting the four-letter nature of the name. In Jewish tradition, it is considered too sacred to be spoken aloud, leading to the use of substitutes like "Adonai" or "Hashem."
