Let me explain something. There isnt 16 ways to spell Channukah. Those top spellings ways are simply the top 13 or so mispelled google searches. I can assure you, no Jews or Hebrew speakers would ever use most of those spellings.

Some of you people are just ridiculous. Some of the more senseless examples listed here are xyzvah, xannqav, khannuckah, channucka, hanuqua, hhanoocka, hshdfhfgh, sjdhfhf, cnchfhfs, and my favorite…. Ch5464356ah.

And for those who listed the arabic spelling as though that way counts as a way to spell a Hebrew word… why not just list the chinese way of spelling it using their chinese alphabet. Or what about the French way of spelling using the French, Phrench, Pfrinch, Frencc, and Frentz alphabet. Or best of all, why not list the binary code way of spelling Channukah, which is 0110110010111 by the way…

Just because you can phonetically sound out the word using letters doesnt mean that its an actual spelling.

I also learned ‘Chanukah’ and even in Hebrew the first letter is a Chet, not a Hay.

Lots of times I see ‘Xmas’ but never spell Christmas that way. I believe it to be a respect issue with me.

In the USA, there is no official language.

In Israel, the official languages are Hebrew and Arabic.
