I’m being trained to serve at Low Mass for every Friday, however my training session is on Saturday, just before I serve at my first Mass (ahhh!), I just wanted to know if anyone had any help they could give me with my Latin Pronunciation, since I usually only pray in Latin privately, my pronunciation is rusty (at best), especially for use at Mass.

may God bless you
 
Just remember, don’t rush or hurry around the sanctuary, but don’t walk around lazily. Stay focused on what the priest is doing and know when your parts come in. A helpful thing to do is recognize a few moments before you have to ring a bell for example. (During the Sanctus,be ready to get the bell when Father begins the preface. You will hear towards the end "…Per quem majestatem tuam laudant Angeli, adorant Dominationes, tremunt Potestates. Coeli, coelorumque Virtutes ac beata Seraphim socia exsultatione concelebrant. Cum quibus et nostras voces, ut admitti jubeas, deprecamur, supplici confessione dicentes: Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus Dominus Deus Sabaoth, pleni sunt caeli et terra gloria tua, Hosanna in excelsis, benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini, Hosanna in excelsis. (This is from the common preface.)

St. John Cantius, Chicago Il, has a web store that has a “Servers response card”
with the correct Roman pronunciation of ecelesiastical Latin.

I agree with ProVobis on this site also on this site there is a link to a booklet on how to serve the Low Mass and Benediction which I have a copy of and I recommend this booklet

A tip on pronunciation: every letter is pronounced.

Yes and practice, practice, and practice is always in order. Especially that “Suscipiat” which can be quite a tongue-twister, yet should be poetic sounding. As should most Latin prayers.

What helped me was the DVD that is available at fraternitypublications.com/howtoselama.html

Also sanctamissa.org/en/tutorial/ordo-missae-1.html is a very good source along with this site rickmk.com/Responses/index.html

I downloaded the mp3s into my mp3 player and would go for a walk and recite the prayers while I walked. Eventually it sinks in.

Ad Déum qui laetíficat juventútem méam.

God bless!

Love you quote from Psalm 42:4 from the Vulgate. “Ad Deum qui laetificat juventutem meam.” "To God, who giveth Joy to my youth. Also the prayer at the foot of the altar and my favorite verse in the Bible
 
Thank you all for your help, I helped serve at the Mass alongside the LMS’s (Latin Mass Society) MC (Master of Ceremonies for those that don’t know, i know i didn’t know that some Servers in the Old Rite were given this title) who helped me with what i was meant to be doing and when, and they have asked that i begin to serve more often, either every Friday evening, or fortnightly, it all depends on what I can do (:

Pax et caritas Domini sit semper vobiscum
