what is the ordinary of the roman catholic mass?

a. the mass texts when theyre spoken rather than sung.

b. the music accompanying the mass texts.

c. the mass texts that change according to the church calendar.

d. the mass texts that are recited every day.

Explanation:

In the Roman Catholic Mass, the "Ordinary" refers to the parts of the Mass (texts, often with associated music) that remain the same and are recited/sung daily, as opposed to the "Proper" which changes with the church calendar. Option A is incorrect as the Ordinary can be sung or spoken. Option B is incorrect as the Ordinary includes texts (with optional music), not just music. Option C describes the Proper, not the Ordinary.

Answer:

D. The Mass texts that are recited every day.
