What is another word for Hassidic Jew?
Pronunciation: [hasˈɪdɪk d͡ʒˈuː] (IPA) 
Hassidic Jews are a specific sect of Orthodox Judaism whose followers place great emphasis on religious observance and personal devotion to God. However, there are several synonyms that can be used to describe them. For example, they are sometimes referred to as Chasidic or Hasidic Jews, a term that derives from the Hebrew word hasid, meaning "pious one". Other synonyms include ultra-Orthodox Jews, Haredi Jews, or simply Orthodox Jews. While these terms may not be interchangeable with Hassidic Jew, they are often used in conjunction with each other, and all refer to similarly conservative and religiously observant Jews.
