T9 function on mobile phones.

Beware everyone of the T9 predictive text function on mobile phones. This (to the uninitiated) is when the phone itself decides which word you are trying to spell using buttons which are assigned more than one letter. When texting a message to one of our local clergy about one of the organ builders who had phoned, my mobile tried to substitute the word "sinned" for "phoned". The implications are terrible!

If you consider that text speak is in danger of replacing the English language anyway, perhaps the new translations of the Mass are already out of date. Looking at the Gloria setting we can expect (If the North American model is anything to go by) a text language Gloria would hardly be any more difficult or cumbersome to set to music! :lol:
