Defination from the web:
Jehovah (pronounced /dʒɨˈhoʊvə/) is an English reading of יְהֹוָה, the most frequent form of the Tetragrammaton יהוה (transliterated as YHWH) ... Some sources question the received view that the vowels of Jehovah originate with the word Adonai rather than an ancient pronunciation of YHWH. ...
