Yeah, Traditional Latin is the bedrock of the Catholic church...

And you wonder why it's being erased?

Well, for starters "tolle" means "take" rather than "destroy." For example, "Agnus Dei qui *tollis* peccata mundi" which means "Lamb of God who *taketh away* the sins of the world."

Most of my familiarity with the text of the Latin Mass comes from listening to the sacred music of the great composers, lol.

Dominus vobiscum. I have a missalette from pre-Vatican 2 that has the Latin on one side and English on the other. Maybe you and @ketobikerdude can find one too? I miss Latin Mass, unfortunately the closest one is over an hour away.

According to brave ai....
The Latin word "tolle" is the second-person singular present active imperative form of the verb tollō, meaning "to raise, lift, take away, remove, or destroy".
 It is used to command someone to "raise thou," "lift thou up," "remove thou," or "take thou away".
 This form is derived from the Latin verb tollere, which has a rich semantic range including physical lifting, removal, destruction, and figurative uses such as abolishing or eliminating.

You should learn Italian & Spanish too. That way you have a chance to get the accent right

I have this little booklet on the subject, The Reformation 20 Answers by Catholic Answers. It was a good overview and gave direction on finding direct sources, letters, etc. So anyways I don't believe Luther was acting in good faith. According to Pope Leo X, Luther was invited to the Vatican several times to talk things through and work out common ground, but refused. He ended the letter saying that they hoped for repentance and peace-making but nevertheless they had to excommunicate him due to the heresies. I also find it suspicious that the sacraments and continuation of leadership for the church (ie the saints, prophesies, our shepherds the priests) were destroyed. Kill the shepherd, scatter the sheep. So these poor protestants have no communion or confession, they can't look to the saints for inspiration in their lives, and their churches are nowadays sad boxes with nothing beautiful or holy to gaze upon. They can't even pray for their dead. Those outcomes seem like they came from the devil himself. Woe to the divided church.
