  7. Why a new translation? New translation: • is more faithful to original Latin • safeguards a common and universal language of prayer.

  8. Roman Missal: A Brief History Prior to Vatican Council II (1962-65), Latin was the only language used for the celebration of Mass throughout the world!

  12. Translation into the Vernacular • “Dynamic equivalency” used for original translation (1973-74) from Latin to English. • “Dynamic equivalency” expresses the familiarity of the language. • English is not a richly endowed language. • Accuracy of classical Latin lost in “poverty” of modern English. N.B.: Many third world countries used this translation of English as basis for translation into their vernacular.

  13. Translation into the Vernacular • “Formal equivalency” mandated by “Liturgical Authenticum” for translation into the vernacular (2007) • Closer conformity to the theological and scriptural foundations of the Latin Mass • Greater unity of theological concepts in prayers of the Mass in all languages
