Tallit
A tallit [taˈlit] (Hebrew: טָלֵית) (talit in Modern Hebrew) (tālēt in Sephardic Hebrew and Ladino) (tallis, in Ashkenazic Hebrew and Yiddish) pl. tallitot [taliˈtot] (talleisim, tallism, in Ashkenazic Hebrew and Yiddish) (ṭālēth - ṭelāyōth in Tiberian Hebrew) is either a fringed garment traditionally worn either under or over one’s clothing (the tallit katan) or a Jewish prayer shawl worn over the outer clothes during the morning prayers (Shacharit) and worn during all prayers on Yom Kippur (the tallit gadol). The tallit has special twined and knotted fringes known as tzitzit attached to its four corners. Most traditional tallitot are made of wool, silk, or linen. The tallit gadol is often first worn by children on their Bar Mitzvahs, though the tallit katan may be worn from pre-school age in Orthodox circles. In orthodox, Ashkenazi circles, a tallit gadol is customarily presented to a groom before marriage as part of the dowry.
