Need a little help with Translations

    As part of an ongoing project, I have also completed adding PDF bookmarks to a PDF of the Graduale Romanum, and the bookmarks will be in English for ease of use. However, a few of the headings are above my (basic) latin skills. Any help?

    need translations for the following headings in the GR (Can provide further context if needed):
    1. Praenotanda
    2. ad missam matutinam
    3. Infra Octavam Nativitatis Domini
    4. Sanctorum et sanctarum
    5. Missae Rituales ad Diversa et Votive
    6. Missae ad Diversa
    7. Missae in Exsequiis in Anniversario et in Diversis Commemorationibus
    8. Missa in Exsquiis Parvuli Baptizati
    9. Ordo Exsequiarum
  • 1. To be noted beforehand
    2. Of the morning Mass
    3. Within the Octave of the Birth of the Lord
    4. Of the Saints [sanctorum is masculine, and sanctarum is feminine, so you could also render this "Of Holy Men and Holy Women"]

    Hope this is a helpful start

    I prefer to render "Sanctorum & Sanctarum" as "[Common] of Saints and Saintettes". YMMV

    1. Praenotanda is idiomatic for "Preface" or "Introduction"

    Using, as far as possible, terminology from the 2010 Roman Missal:

    1. Preface
    2. The Morning Mass (of December 24)
    3. Within the Octave of the Nativity of the Lord
    4. Holy men and women
    5. Ritual Masses, Masses for various intentions and votive Masses
    6. Masses for various intentions
    7. Funeral Masses on the anniversary and various commemorations
    8. Mass for the funeral of a baptized child
    9. The Order of Christian Funerals
