- The term refers primarily to an ethnoreligious group. The adjective form is "thuộc Do Thái" or more commonly, the noun phrase "người Do Thái" is used attributively (e.g., - Jewish culture).
- It is distinct from "người Israel" (Israeli), which denotes nationality. Not all Israelis are Jewish, and not all Jews are Israeli citizens.
