How to Say the Rosary in Latin (Part 4, Finale)

July 11, 2017









Hey y'all!

I'm so sorry that I took this long, but we have finally come to the end! This last post will give the mystery titles in Latin and the prayers for the pope, so you can say your rosary totally in Latin!

Disclaimer: These prayers were taken and checked by multiple sources. The bulk of the prayers in this series can be found on this website: 
http://www.traditioninaction.org/religious/b012rpLatin_Rosary.htm

Here's how it will work: I'll put the text of the whole prayer in Latin first, followed by the full English translation. Then, each prayer will be broken down by line. I'll give the Latin first in colored text, then the pronunciation below it in colored italics.

So let's get started!

WHEW. 

Thank heavens. 

(Did I ever mention that writing pronunciation is hard???) 

In addition to this post, I've also updated all of the other "How to Say the Rosary in Latin" posts so all the schemes are the same and all the italics are in the right place. (this is what happens when you write these at night). 

Hope your summer is going well! 

Old-fashionably yours, 

Catherine
