The Rosary In Latin With Monsignor Guido Marini

This entry updates the one entered on August 14, 2013.  The link that leads to Monsignor Guido Marini saying the rosary in Latin is now on Youtube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJ9kxk_RlmI [1]


[1] Catholic Devotions on Youtube uploaded a recitation of the rosary in Latin but the pronunciation of some of the words are different from the Monsignor's.  Listen to it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pc9g9dCZ_sc   Since Latin is a "dead" language, no one really knows for certain the proper pronunciation, so I have developed my own preferences.  For example, I like pronouncing "Dei" as "day-ee", with just a hint of "ee", a very short one, not an elongated "eeee" and not just "day". The two-syllable pronunciation of "Dei" parallels that of "die" which is pronounced as "dee-a".  Listen to it here: http://www.forvo.com/word/et_resurrexit_tertia_die/  Support for the two-syllable pronunciation of "Dei"can be heard here as chanted by The Daughters of Mary & Bishop Joseph Santay at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJJoUfgfmRA  Please do not pay attention to the Pater Noster prayer before the chant (better to mute it) because I think the Latin there sounds awful, but I do thank the person for uploading the chant that followed.
