Jews are monotheistic, which means that there is only One God in Judaism. Jews hold this to be a very important belief; and the fundamental Jewish prayer (from Deuteronomy ch.6) is:
"Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One."
God is referred to in Judaism by numerous names (God, Lord, Master of the Universe, etc.), because He is too great to be confined/defined by a single name. These various names all refer to the one and same God; the God who created heaven and earth and continues to will them into existence and control all of existence.
Jews believe that God created the heaven and earth from nothing (in 3760 BCE) and continues to will it into existence and control all events. He rewards those that follow His commandments, and punishes those who do not.
Comment: Jews are not allowed to worship any other gods than the Creator, are not allowed to believe in a trinity or accept Jesus, nor believe that God can be in a human form.
There is only one God in Judaism. In fact, the whole religion is based on the idea of one God.
There are many words to refer to this God, but God's true name cannot be pronounced due to strong tradition, as well as the fact nobody knows what the vowels are in the name.
They believe in one, singular god. The Creator has one true name which is represented by the letters YHVH in English. The Hebrew letters are "yud, hei, vav, hei". These four letters are referred to as the tetragrammaton and are a contraction of the Hebrew words for, "was, is, and will be". His true name was only said in the Temple and with the Temple's destruction we lost the correct pronunciation.
In the Tanach (Jewish Bible), there are 72 different 'names' used for The Creator, these aren't actual names though, they're descriptions of Him that are contextual. In daily conversation, most Jews use the name 'HaShem' which literally translates to 'The Name' in reference to His true name.
Yes, in Judaism, there is only one G-d.
Judaism believes in one ethical God, though modern Jews have many different views on God. Tradition forbids the pronunciation of God's name, and in fact, only the consonants of the name are known today.
The word Goddess, or female god doesn't even exist in hebrew.
There is only one God worshipped by Jews: the Creator of the universe.
Sometimes the presence of God is referred as Shekhina, which brings some kind of confusion that there must be a goddess, but actually there is no goddess or other gods than the Creator in Judaism.
