Ha-Shem is Hebew for "The-Name" In Judaism you never invoke the Hebrew name YHWH (Yaweh) so they always call it Ha-Shem. The KJV decided to call it "The LORD" instead of Yahweh... "Jehovah" is a hybrid name and so on...

Hashem is Hebrew and literally means "The Name". It refers to G-d and is used by Jews to avoid using the real pronunciation of His name.

Hashem is a way of referring to God.
"Traditional Jews use the name 'Hashem' instead of 'God' to show their respect to God by not taking his name lightly and only using the proper name God in prayers."

Hashem is one of the ways to say "God" in Hebrew.

You didn't pronounce that correctly.
Try using a voiceless alveolo-palatal sibilant.
