The lost letters of the Vatican Dictionary
Southern Fried Catholicism ^ | 1/20/2012 | Fr. Joe Tonos

The Vatican Insider has published an online Vatican dictionary. The site promises that you can understand your faith's terms from "A divinis" to "Zucchetto"!

However, there are still a few letters not accounted for. J, K, Q, W, X, Y have no words as of this writing. No "juris"? And don't we have lots of "q" words?

Not to fear, I've come up with some of the missing letters from the Diocese of Jackson and thereabouts. I even made child-friendly flashcards to go with them! The rhymes are a bit off but I'm not a poet, and I know it. Wow..now that rhymed.

I substituted for “j” in early Latin (Iesu, rather than Jesu, for instance). Perhaps “iuris” should be checked.
