[Cronos]

Any well-instructed Catholic knows what’s going on at Mass—they are pretty much the same all across the world for 2000 years. If you took me to a Mass in Chinese I could tell you exactly what was going on, even though I don’t speak a word of Chinese.

I can attest to that -- I've been for mass in: English, Latin, French, Flemish, German, Hindi, Marathi, Konkani, Chinese, Polish, Czech, Italian, Spanish and I knew what was going on. There is the "catholicity" in effect! :-)

You'd know what was going on regardless, as long as you memorized the Mass in your Native language...Latin has nothing to do with it...
