For "Halachah" we have a term and definition in Judaism.

"Halachah" (Judaism)

(f., pl. "Halachot"); Actually, this word is used in two senses: one is as a singular, meaning a single Jewish Law; for example, that one has to recite a "berachah," a blessing, before one eats an apple. The second sense is as a collective noun, referring to "all of Jewish Law." For example, a Rabbi should be an expert in all of "Halachah."
The word derives from the Hebrew "shoresh," or root, "lech," "to go." The reason is that it describes a "path to follow," or a "way on which to go," in life.
"Hallel"- Group of Psalms, composed by King David about 3300 years ago; used in Jewish Prayers on special occasions, such as Holidays and Rosh Chodesh, for special praise of G-d.
