Learn Ecclesiastical Latin

[James924]

Attending Tridentine Mass. Can anyone recommend any audio or video resources for Ecclesiastical Latin?

I’d be interested in learning as well!

I taught myself using Latina Christiana and Henle Latin. These resources can be found at MemoriaPress.com.

I highly recommend the free podcast called Latinum (on iTunes). But it is not an overview of Ecclestiatical Latin … rather it is a podcast for truly and deeply learning the Latin language.

It will help you understand grammar and develop a vocabulary that you could then use to understand ancient Roman writings, the Mass, the Divine Office, the Latin Fathers, the writings of Newton and other scientists in Latin, etc etc.

For something more specifically ecclestiatical, I like Dr. Collins’ A Primer of Ecclestical latin.

Lots of tips in these Sticky: [thread=173658]Latin resources[/thread] and [thread=121562]LATIN: Language Study Resources[/thread] and other threads (tag search learn latin).

For a specifically audio system, I can recommend the [post=2538507]Cursus Linguae Latinae Vivae[/post].

I have no experience with it (and too pricey for mere curiousity), but an audio/video resource I know of is *Artes Latinae *from Bolchazy-Carducci. It claims to cover all of “American Scholastic, Continental Ecclesiastical, and Restored Classical pronunciations”.

I will also recommend Dr. Collins’ book, as well as Henle’s.
