Pronuntiatio¶

Ecclesiastical Latin (used in the Church and for the Rosary) differs from classical Latin.

• Soft "c" before e, i, ae, oe is pronounced "ch" (as in "church").
• "g" before e, i is soft "j".
• "gn" is like "ny" in "canyon".
• Vowels are pure; no diphthongs as in English.

Listen to a choir or priest for the natural flow of the prayers.
