I’m not Catholic. I don’t understand the implications of this. Why does the language matter?
Latin is a very precise language that the devil hates. It is the language of the Catholic Church despite all the infiltrated demons trying to get rid of it.
Loosy goosy language in which interpreted meanings are all of the place is the devil’s playground of purposeful ambiguity.
If you want to stick it to the demons, learn to pray in Latin.
Hope that helps, God Bless!

Well lets face it, Latin is not the easiest language to learn. That’s just a hunch of mine.
The current pope and his merry band of whatevers seek to destroy the ancient rite of worship and force upon all a rite which is tepid and subject to great abuse. The Latin Rite and its Canon have been with us for many centuries, it is humble and worshipful and peaceful with profound periods of silence. It was the rite of the entire Church until 1970, Francis and his minions want to stop it because it is God centered. Latin has been our liturgical language for centuries, it is a dead language so the real meanings of words can never change. It is easy to worship in Latin since in your missal has parallel Latin/English pages. All the psalms and Bible readings used become very familiar to you this way. And, yes, the devil hates Latin.
Since you are a non-Catholic I would expect that you probably wouldn’t understand what is going on in the Church today with respect to the traditional Latin Mass (TLM). Indeed, most Catholics don’t either.
While the focus of the media and the modern Catholic hierarchy is on the “language” (Latin vs the vernacular such as English), the heart issue has little to do with that. The crux of the matter is that the Catholic Church was co-opted by Modernist forces during the Second Vatican Council (Vatican II) in the early 1960’s, and a so-called Conciliar Church grew out of it that is a new religion completely.
Upon the close of Vatican II (1965). that new religion created a New Mass known today as the Novus Ordo Mass. Yes, it is to be said in English in this country, but far more importantly, it is an entirely different Mass. In fact, it was designed after the Protestant Mass drawn up by Thomas Cranmer that envisioned the Mass as a celebration of the Last Supper, in contradistinction to the TLM which is nothing less that a re-creation of Christ’s death on the Cross at Calvary. The TLM and the Novus Ordo Mass are as different as day and night—notwithstanding the fact that one is said in latin and the other in English.
And while a holy priestly organization known as the FSSP (Fraternity of St Peter) is currently permitted to celebrate the TLM (and they do so in a very reverential way), there is every reason to believe that Pope Francis will eventually require that organization to celebrate the Novus Ordo Mass exclusively.
If and/or when that comes to past, one of the few (arguably only) priestly organizations left standing that celebrates the TLM and follows all of the true teachings of the Catholic Church that were extant prior to Vatican II will be the FSSPX (Society of St Pius X) They will continue celebrating the TLM as well as continuing to profess the true teachings of the Catholic Church, notwithstanding any directives to the country from Pope Francis or anyone else.
