In the days before Vatican ll this was so. Today, it would be very beautiful in English.That is impossible, as when celebrating the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite, it must be in Latin. Mixing the Ordinary Form, and the Extraordinary Form is prohibited, at least to my knowledge.
That’s why we don’t see the Prayers at the Foot of the Altar at an Ordinary Form Mass.
Same goes for the Extraordinary Form, you can’t have it celebrated in English, because the Extraordinary Form does not permit such a thing.
Don’t worry about offending God over mispronounciations.I’m a young person and a fan of the Traditional Latin Mass, yet I was wondering if its possible or allowed for a priest to hold this mass and speak in English the whole time, not just during the homily. I cant eloquently speak Latin and I almost feel like I’m offending God by not pronouncing properly the responses.
Historically, there was an English translation of the Tridentine form of the mass used in England before the Reformation. I do not know if they are still approved for use.I’m a young person and a fan of the Traditional Latin Mass, yet I was wondering if its possible or allowed for a priest to hold this mass and speak in English the whole time, not just during the homily.

The Traditional Mass may be celebrated in any approved language. I do not know if there are any translations currently approved, but I believe there was at least a French translation used in the 1950’s.That is impossible, as when celebrating the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite, it must be in Latin. Mixing the Ordinary Form, and the Extraordinary Form is prohibited, at least to my knowledge.
Some of these rites from the Traditional form are included in the Ordinary Form; they have just been made more optional and have fallen out of common use.That’s why we don’t see the Prayers at the Foot of the Altar at an Ordinary Form Mass.

Right. When Pope JPII “restored” the old rite in 1984, he specified among other things,That is impossible, as when celebrating the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite, it must be in Latin. Mixing the Ordinary Form, and the Extraordinary Form is prohibited, at least to my knowledge.

Actually according to linguists, English has the most irregular pronunciation problems in the world and vary from country to country which speak it, not to mention all the silent letters and shades of meanings of its vocabulary that also vary. So much so, it’s entirely possible that people in one English-speaking country find another English-speaking country very difficult to live in. One could even make a case it is perhaps one of the most vulgar languages of the world. I’d be less afraid of incurring the wrath of God if I chose a more stable and timeless language to pray to him in, mispronunciation or not.Do not worry about offending God by your mispronunciation; I am sure it pleases Him to see your effort in trying to pray in the language of His Church.
