What is the English translation of the hymn 'Salve Mater misericordiae'?

Answer 1

The English translation of the Latin greeting 'Salve, Regina' is the following: Hail, Queen. The word-by-word translation is as follows: 'salve' means 'hail'; and 'regina' means 'queen'. According to classical Latin, the pronunciation is the following: SAHL-way ray-GEE-nah. According to liturgical Latin, the pronunciation is as follows: SAHL-vay ray-DJEE-nah.

Answer 2

The Latin phrase 'Salve mater misericordiae' are the opening words to the Catholic antiphon to the Virgin Mary. The English translation is the following: Hail, Mother of Mary. The word-by-word translation is as follows: 'salve' means 'hail'; 'mater' means 'mother'; and 'misericordiae' means 'of mercy'.

The title`s just off by one word; it`s Mercy instead of Mary. So it`s "Hail, Mother of Mercy." Obvious once you keep reading but it didn`t make sense so I had to fix it.

Answer 3

salve = +- salvation regina = +- queen --> save the queen salve = +- salvation regina = +- queen --> save the queen

Answer 4

In Latin 'Salve Regina' means, hello Queen. Salve is pronounced sal-way, and Regina is pronounced reg-eena.

Answer 5

"Salve Regina" in Latin literally means "Hail Queen" when translated to English. The Catholic hymn "Hail Holy Queen" is a hymn to Mary, and is the final prayer in the rosary.
