Oh, yes they can. Those consonants can’t be sustained, but the words that they end most certainly can. But this goes beyond just those three consonants. It is a basic principle of good singing that you elongate the preceding vowel and add the final consonant only at the end of the held note. You only ever sustain the vowels. If you are singing “Donnnnnnnn’t cry for me, Argentina” (let alone the impossible “Don’ttttttttttttt cry for me, Argentina”) you are doing it wrong. The preceding vowel (the “oh” sound) is what gets sustained.Words ending with “D” and “B” and “T” can’t be sustained.
I wonder if that is true canonically. Does this “association” have any canonical standing in the Church? Just wondering.Well - they have the right to petition…and the Bishops and the Vatican have the duty to consider the petition(s).
They may or may not have a right to petition, I don’t know.Well - they have the right to petition…and the Bishops and the Vatican have the duty to consider the petition(s).
The Bishops and the Vatican also have the right to “say no” to the petition(s) after due consideration.
At that point the priests who submitted it have a duty to accept the decision of the Bishops in obedience…
The question will be - will they accept no for an answer…

They may or may not have a right to petition, I don’t know.
The bishops and the Vatican certainly have NO duty to consider the petition.
They have a duty to accept the translation NOW, not after some petition has been considered.
Or, if you’re a song writer, you can add the translingual “alleluia” at the end. Any syllable of it is easy to chant and held over several notes.The preceding vowel (the “oh” sound) is what gets sustained.
Exactly. But they somehow think they don’t need it now.Well - they have the right to petition…and the Bishops and the Vatican have the duty to consider the petition(s).

To synch with the French and cognate with the Latin? Sounds reasonable IMO.for the many —> for the multitudes
Thats my only request about the new translation.
Nothing in the article states that these are “disobedient” priests. If it weren’t for the actions of those who didn’t like the ICEL translation, we wouldn’t even HAVE the new translation to begin with.In addition to daily prayers on behalf of the 400 disobedient Austrian Priests, I will now add the 600 disobedient American Priests.
Let us pray for vocations!
