Latin is easy to learn for persons fluent in English, and truer than you think. How so? But for French, Latin is closest to English. The abbreviated history of the English language is, Latin to French to English.
William of Normandy became the King of England in 1066. He spoke French, whose direct root is Latin. It was at that point that the language of the Angles and Saxons began mixing with French to form English, but it was not until Geoffrey Chaucer, who died in 1400 as the "Father of English poetry", that we have something like the English of today. By the time of William Shakespeare, who died in 1616, we have modern English. Latin puts you roughly 1600 years closer in time to Jesus, and He spoke it exactly as it is spoken today. I've been attending the Latin Mass for four years. Two years of HS Latin give me a slight advantage because I understand the hard parts: word order and word endings. However, learning the language of something you believe in is easy, and the substance of belief is not Spanish. Wikipedia estimates
One geometric arrangement popular in Catholic art is called the quincunx, an arrangement of five equivalent shapes that have four arranged symmetrically around the fifth which is centrally placed. The five dots on dice are in a quincunx shape.
Quincunx is the geometrical equivalent of the traditional image of Christ in Majesty. Around the central image of the enthroned Christ are four figures representing the four evangelists carrying the Word to the four corners of the world. Cunx, from uncia, means 1/12. Decussate (Latin origin) as an adjective means shaped like an X. in four languages honoring the greatest of His creatures Latin Vulgate Bible, St. Luke Chapter 1 46-55 www.drbo.org/cgi-bin/d?b=lvb&bk=49&ch=1&l=46#x St. Jerome translated the Bible into Latin between 383 and 404. The New Testament was originally in Greek, and he was working with that, and as he went on, he corrected the Old Testament against the Hebrew original. These three languages are nailed to the cross and are sacred. One thing you can say about Latin is that the language is more tactile than English. As Andy Math says, "How exciting." See the word sēmeni. The Latin word, sēmen, means seed and is the root of the English word, semen. Because Latin does not change, there can be no taboo words, as there are in English. We must carefully choose our words when speaking publicly, and so the word is translated as children. In a way, Latin is frozen. Freezing food is a way to preserve it, making this language perfect for the ageless Eucharist. Do I like parsing my spoken language? At my desk, but not in the street. Dominican St. Antoninus 1459 — “In the case in which the Pope would become a heretic, he would find himself, by that very fact alone and without any other sentence, separated from the Church. A head separated from a body cannot, as long as it remains separated, be head of the same body from which it was cut off.”
Jesuit St. Robert Bellarmine 1610 — “A Pope who is a manifest heretic automatically ceases to be a Pope and head, just as he ceases automatically to be a Christian and a member of the Church.” Salesian St. Francis de Sales 1622 — “Now when the Pope is explicitly a heretic, he falls ipso facto from his dignity and out of the Church …” after Pentecost Douay-Rheims. A modern translation is literal. Students with a poetic ear do not want dumbed-down content or the language that goes with hand-me-downs. "Here, you can have this."
Ordo ab Chao is a Latin phrase meaning order out of chaos. It is the motto of the 33rd degree of Freemasonry and can be found on seals, flags, and regalia. The phrase represents the Masons' mission to bring order out of confusion. Protestors against Israel, or 'straight' people, or oil and order, perpetuate the same misguided mission, blocking London traffic and wasting resources.
Antivenom is the primary treatment for rattlesnake bites. Antivenom is a type of antibody therapy that reduces the effects of venom. The sooner it is administered, the more likely it is to stop irreversible damage to the body. The symbols come from Ezekiel.
upper left Matthew; upper right Mark lower left Luke; lower right John Matthew’s symbol is a man/angel because he begins his Gospel with Christ’s human genealogy, focusing on Christ the Man. Mark’s symbol is a lion because his Gospel starts off with a roar. In the first chapter, we are confronted with the fiery words of St. John the Baptist, the “voice of one crying in the wilderness.” Luke’s symbol is an ox, an animal of sacrifice. The first event he recounts is the apparition of the Archangel Gabriel to Zechariah, the father of St. John the Baptist. Zechariah, a priest, is offering sacrifice to God in the temple when Gabriel announces the impending birth of John the Baptist. John’s symbol is an eagle. In his Gospel, he “soars” above earthly events to contemplate the Divinity of Christ.
A Latin Mass priest purifies his fingers post communion with water and wine.
Decanoic acid, a 10-carbon medium-chain fatty acid, is naturally found in wine. The acid often has an unpleasant odor that is described as waxy, soapy, or goaty, and is used in soap and in pharmaceutical and plastics production.
Consumatum est. It is consummated.
30 Jesus therefore, when he had taken the vinegar, said: It is consummated. And bowing his head, he gave up the ghost. And there you have a slice of the history of the English language brought to you by the Douay-Rheims 1582. (King James published 1611, 29 years after) Don't be afraid of the French name. They were Englishmen living across the English Channel because Betty I would kill. Glen Tattersall graduated in Arts/Law from Sydney University in 1988, and began his career working in insurance litigation at Sly & Russell (now Deacons).
He later moved to a small suburban firm and then to AMP, where he was in-house counsel for 5½ years. In 1995 Tattersall entered the seminary of the Priestly Fraternity of St Peter in Pennsylvania. He returned to Australia after 5 years of study, and was ordained by Bishop Manning of Paramatta in June 2001. He is 60 years old. Timothy Costelloe, SDB, Archbishop of Perth, acted ultra vires when he cancelled the Latin Mass at St. Anne the end of 2023. However, the Latin Mass is preserved at Chapel of the Good Shepherd, Kelmscott. https://www.goodshepherdlatinmass.com/#:~:text=Chapel%20of%20the%20Good%20Shepherd%2C%20Kelmscott%20%7C%20Latin%20Mass%20%7C%20Perth%20Australia The average Catholic, nay the average American, could not explain ultra vires. The National Latin Exam is a test given to Latin students. In 2023, the exam, which is sponsored by the US-based American Classical League and the National Junior Classical League, was given to over 107,000 students in the US, Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Iran, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Poland, Taiwan, UK, and Zimbabwe. The exam covers general knowledge of Latin grammar and vocabulary, mythology, Roman culture, derivatives, and translation abilities. And you thought it was an outdated Catholic thing, bro. Maybe you can park your ass on another bench, not mine.

US Constitution Article I, Section 9, Clause 2 “The Privileges of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.” This section is called the Suspension Clause. The Latin phrase, habeas corpus, translates to, "You shall have the body."
Roman History Jesus is brought before Pilate. 11 And Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, saying: Art thou the king of the Jews? Jesus saith to him: Thou sayest it. 12 And when he was accused by the chief priests and ancients, he answered nothing. 13 Then Pilate saith to him: Dost not thou hear how great testimonies they allege against thee? 14 And he answered him to never a word; so that the governor wondered exceedingly. Canon Law Can. 844 §1. Catholic ministers administer the sacraments licitly to Catholic members of the Christian faithful alone, who likewise receive them licitly from Catholic ministers alone, without prejudice to the prescripts of §§2, 3, and 4 of this canon, and can. 861, §2. Sacrament of Communion (receiving the Body of Christ) Francis' encyclical, Amoris laetitia (The Joy of Love), provides that people who are divorced and remarried but are not subjectively culpable due to mitigating factors may receive Communion in certain cases. Mitigating factors could include insufficient knowledge or consent. When prose sounds good, but it's unintelligible, it's called a loophole. Francis is supposed to be the Vicar of Christ, but he dropped the title. In the Vatican yearbook, Annuario Pontificio (2020 edition), the title “Vicar of Christ” does not appear on the listing for Pope Francis. The title appears at the bottom of the page, and the title is identified only as a “historical” title. Now put yourself in the place of Pilate. Are you wondering exceedingly? Who is this Francis? Roman Missal, Today's Mass of the Sacred Heart
For what reason am I Catholic? To console Him, to stay one more night, to keep Him company. This was always known. Since age eight is always and when I swallowed first time. Read the Latin aloud. Verbs at the end of a clause or sentence, such as fuit, are powerful. Aristide organa fecit, quae sunt in toto orbe terrarum. Aristide made organs, which are all over the world. The man is way up there.

Title: Destruction Artist: Thomas Cole 1801-1848 Series title: The Course of Empire Genre: landscape painting Date: 1836 Medium: oil Dimensions: height 39.5 in; width 63.5 in Collection: New-York Historical Society Accession number: 1858.4 Place of creation: USA Thomas Cole was founder of the Hudson River School turning out art that flourished in the mid-19th century. Influenced by Romantic and realistic styles, and father of five, the English-born American painted nature in detail. Latin was originally in all caps. Two French angels assist the Welsh hermit-priest who mingles with us and overlays the video with a poem written at Fontgombault. Did you know that every angel in Heaven is present at Mass? They worship, too. If my friend Josh and I, not angels, were present at this Mass, stifled laughter would have interrupted solitude. The little guy is doing his best. Alexander, my 10-year-old writing student, pulled a fast one on me. He bought the Cambridge Latin Course Unit 1. I asked him if he wanted to study Latin, and he said, "No, it's for you to learn." Ha-ha-ha. So, I asked his mother if he wanted to begin, and she said, "It's up to Alexander." Here I am, having to prepare the first lesson and no idea what that will be.

Music: RV 644 Juditha triumphans Composer: Father Antonio Vivaldi Review: stars above 17. Aria "Agitata infido flatu" Agitata infido flatu Diu volatu Vagabundo Maesta hirundo It plorando Boni ignara. Sed impulsu aurae serenae Tantae cito oblita poenae In dilecta Dulcia tecta Gaudi ridet haud avara. 17. Aria "Tossed by a treacherous wind" Tossed by the treacherous wind in its long flight, the wandering sad swallow goes weeping, unaware of good. But pushed by a fair breeze, suddenly forgetting such sorrow, in its delightfully tender nest. Before any translation I heard anguish. Sic semper tyrannis.
Oderint dum metuant. Aut cum scuto aut in scuto. Gladiator in arena consilium capit. Flectere si nequeo superos, Acheronta movebo. If I cannot bend the will of Heaven, I shall move Hell. Yeah, that's how to deliver a speech. ★ ORIGINAL CREDITS ★ 〉Original Song: Camila Cabello
Top line is all caps. Originally, Latin (also Greek) only had capital letters. Lowercase letters developed later as script for writing quickly by hand. U looks like a V. SPQR is Senatus PopulusQue Romanum, the Senate and People of Rome. These guys spent a lot of time producing a recording like this, as evidenced by the fine vocals, orchestration, audio frequency spectrum starting at one circle and going to five, and translation that rhymes, intoning classical Latin. |
