Chanukah

What does the word dreidel mean? Is it Hebrew, Yiddish or something else? Thanks.  

Is it okay to light a mixed colored set of small red, green, blue, and yellow Chanukah candles? Does it matter as to the order that they are placed in the candle holder and the order in which they're lit? And what's the name of the holder, "menorah" or "chanukiah"? Thanks and happy Chanukah!

What is the message of Chanukah for our contemporary society?

What does the word “Chanukah” mean?

Hi Rabbi, can you give me a crash course in the laws and customs of Chanukah? Thanks in advance and I hope you have a happy Chanukah!

Dear Rabbi, what’s your favorite Chanuka story for inspiration? Of course we’re inspired by the Jewish People’s miraculous victory over ancient Greece, and the burning of the Menorah for 8 nights, but do you have any “more modern” story that you would share with me for inspiration today? Thanks!
