People here mostly speak in Hebrew, Arabic and Yiddish, so the common ground to communicate is in English that they also speak quite fluently.
If you are wondering about the attire here, it is suggested that if you’re planning to visit any holy shrines, you need to first and foremost carry a scarf if you’re a woman and a hat or cap if you are a man. Of course, these places are used to secular tourists so most of them provide headgear on borrowing or rent. Carry half-to-long-sleeved shirts and avoid wearing shorts as well. Light cotton clothes are perfect. If you are travelling in the cooler months, then basic winter wear like a jacket and beanie with socks will prove to be sufficient.
