Again thank you to those who replied both on List and off.

Nice one George, well put. I think the Latin was easier for me though as I couldn't understand that any easier, but it was less words. I think we should all go out and re-think our education. The Priests did their best with me, but then I could only say the mass in Latin (still can). Anything like some of the Latin I have seen in registers frightens the life out of me sometimes, I often wonder if the priests actually spoke as they wrote "would they themselves understand each other?". But, well done George for clarifying the matter and thanks for posting it Suzanne.
