Italian Jews (Italian: ebrei italiani; Hebrew: יהודים איטלקים) or Roman Jews (Italian: ebrei romani; Hebrew: יהודים רומים) can be used in a broad sense to mean all Jews living in or with roots in Italy, or, in a narrower sense, to mean the Italkim, an ancient community living in Italy since the Ancient Roman era, who use the Italian liturgy (or "Italian Rite") as distinct from those Jewish communities in Italy dating from medieval or modern times who use the Sephardic liturgy or the Nusach Ashkenaz.
