Much of the Latin would be learned (by the laity) over a period of time, though. Just as Latin has been used sometimes already in the Post Vatican Novus Ordo, it has then been learned. Example, the Agnus Dei (after the consecration):
"Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccati mundi, miserere nobis. Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccati mundi, miserere nobis. Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccati mundi, dona nobis pacem.
"Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us. Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us. Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, grant us peace."
Our parish provides (in every pew) hardbound (very beautifully produced) missals with side-by-side Latin/English translations of the Mass that we always use. And the homily is done in English facing the parishioners.
It's interesting, because as a person without enough hearing to discern
any spoken language, whether it be English, Latin, or Spanish, there's a power in the Latin Mass, whether it be NO or EF (truly like heaven is the best way I can describe it), which is missing in a not-fully-respectful English (or Spanish) Mass. Or as my husband said some time ago, "I struggle just to get through our usual [Novus Ordo without Extraordinary Form rubrics] Sunday Mass." He went on to say the two Masses felt almost like different religions altogether.

That can feel nice, but for me I prefer to understand every word and the context of a new mass each time vs. the rote of the ceremonial.
I remember sitting in Catholic services as a child and being torn between the rituals and being lost in the mystery. Loved the smell of the incense, but missed the meaning behind the symbolism.
