Stands to reason there'd be _some_ differences between Scots and English!

I'll definitely have to visit.

Probably. It seems to retain some things that B has clearly lost.
> Is there a Kerno version too?
But of course! [And Latin, Spanish, Eo, Eurolingua, Quenya, Catalunyan, Gothic, Old and Middle English, and two unnamed Germanic conlangs. I won't vouch for the Quenya et al., but the Brithenig, Latin and Spanish at least are good.] There also seems to be one in Sorbadó, the Paesan spoken in eastern Dûnein: =============== KERNO (Literary Register, old orthography). y hEpistolou dil nnustoer ndonne Xesuxristo i dil nAbgaro, doy hEdessewecks ill rech.

No guarantees on this one. Things may have changed in how I understand Sorbadó to be since this was made. ===============
> Who made these two translations, by the way?
Moi. Andrew corrected the Brithenig, of course, cos I always get the mutations wrong.

:)

Yes and no. Certainly, the Catholic canon is the same regardless of rite. The Roman and Mozarabic bibles are based on the new vulgate (holy St. Jerome's); the British bible is based on the old vulgate. I suspect the Byzantine is based on something Greek. That was the case *here* as well, that the British church used a different translation. In particular, the Cambriese Rite uses the Book of the Holy Saint Teliam (*here* the Hereford Gospels or the Book of St. Chad) as the basis for the Gospels. Where it lacks, another British text is preferred over a continental one. If you can find Ox. Uni Press's "The Celtic Gospels", you've got the kernel ffrom which the vernacular translations were made. When I did the paternoster on Romanceconlang, I used the version found in that book.
> Are certain other > apocryphical works canonical *there*?
I very much doubt it. That would be mucking about _way_ too much. [Though personally, I wouldn't mind if the Fifth Gospel managed to squeeze in somehow...]
> Don't worry too much about Venedino, BTW.
Oh we're not! It's clearly a Sexond Rate "auxlang" whose ideas were totally stolen from The One And Only IAL!!!

Well. Foreigners can do as they please I am sure!!

I.e., it's not worth learning! Reason being, the whole world has seen the sense in picking up Kernopanto - the all new, One and Only IAL for the whole universe!
> BTW, How is "Padraic" pronounced?
Er. _I_ pronounce it in (reasonably) good Old Irish /patrik/. The OIr was Patraic, and a reasonable approximation of Latin Patricius. Modern Irish yields something like /paRIk/ where R is the uvular "American" R. There again, I've gotten half a dozen pronunciations and at least two instances of "Irish speakers" insulting the pronunciation as given by other "Irish speakers". Along the lines of "oh, that's how those lowlifes down in Ballybalogney say it. It should be X, how we say it up here Shaleighleighgohooey". Padraic. ===== Et ters davigaint deck y yaithes 'n el drichlend le Roy Markon; y cestes d' ils yspoil morès y ddew chaumèz e-z-el tons l' organón. .
