it's usually something between two people. you have a conversation ie:
A: so lalalalalalla.
B: Yah, and lalaall, not to mention the "H" word (you can substitute the first letter of any word here.

it's a way of talking about something but not letting other people understadn what the heck you meant.

or it could mean something else.
GIVE ME CONTEXT!

then it's probably GOd and they dont want to say it b/c it's considered a sin
mentioning the G word for chrisians is really quite bad.
there was a girl at my university studying the history of religion and something-or-other who when confronted with writting it in a paper would always write G _ _.
Very pious girl.

по-русски тоже пишут Б-г, почему-то по большей части там, где большинство присутствующих евреи. по моим собственным наблюдениям.

in general it's a respect thing. This girl was Muslim but always did it b/c she sees that God is the same everywhere no matter what name they gave him not depending on "how much they later went and perverted his meaning and his prophets' meanings thus creating other religions," in her words. While she is not Christian she still has respect for the concept of God.
Allah was A ----, Yaweh was Y----, God was G-- and so on.

why does it surprise you that Jews do this?
Jews also use the term God and also consider it sinful to use the word/name in vain.

Well, it's not Christians, but Jews who do this.

Барух ата адонай

ашер кидишану бемицвотав
вецивану лехадлик нер шел ханука

Благословен Ты, Господь наш Бог Владыка вселенной, освятивший нас своими заповедями и позволивший нам зажигать свечи Хануки.

What about it? :)

What sin is, if a person mentions God?
Iit is a sin to say "Oh my G__ "all the time. But in religious context - why not?

you should ask a priest

but it is a sin to use God's name in vain (some take the meaning farther than others)

consult a priest

Библия запрещает использовать имя Бога просто так, хотя многие христиане на самом деле так и не занют какое его настоящее, в отличие от мусульман. Господь, Бог, Отец - это все принятые названия для того чтобы не упоминать имени.

На самом деле христианского Бога зовут Яхве, Иехова, Иегова (по моему в переводе с санскрита - один корень)
