Yarmulke is a small, round cap traditionally worn by Jewish men as a sign of respect and reverence towards God. The word yarmulke is derived from the Yiddish language and is also known as a kippah, skullcap, or a zucchetto. While the word yarmulke is commonly used, it is sometimes replaced with other synonyms depending on the situation or geographical location. In Israel, for example, the word kippah is widely used, whereas skullcap is frequently used in English-speaking countries. Other less common synonyms include a head covering, beanie, or chapeau. Regardless of the term used, the yarmulke serves as an important physical reminder of a person's spiritual connection to the divine.
