“Jew” refers to a person who is part of the Jewish people, which can mean:

===== 1. An Ethno-Religious Identity =====

Being Jewish can refer to:
* Ethnicity — belonging to the Jewish people, descended historically from ancient Israelite communities.
* Religion — practicing Judaism, the Jewish faith.
* Culture — taking part in Jewish traditions, holidays, food, languages (Hebrew, Yiddish, Ladino), etc.

Some Jews are religious, some are secular, and some see it mainly as cultural or ethnic.

===== 2. Not an Insult =====

The word itself is not offensive when used correctly, but it can become offensive if used as a slur or in a derogatory tone. Context matters.

===== 3. A Global Community =====

The Jewish people exist all over the world — Israel, the U.S., Europe, India (e.g., Bene Israel, Cochin Jews), and many other regions.

If you want, I can also explain:
* Jewish beliefs
* Jewish history
* Why the word can feel sensitive in some contexts
* Differences between Judaism, Hebrew, and Israeli

Just tell me which direction you want to go.
