zahavasdad,
The Language is part of the boredom and the translation is really useless (Try reading it and see if it makes sense)
I actually perceive much of the Artscroll English translations to be very well done and powerful, and there are commentaries on the bottom of the pages of the English/Hebrew siddur that provide further explanations.
Of course where there is a will, there is a way, but mussor really wont solve the problem here (I have no solutions..Only pointing out where the problem is) For whatever reason it tends to fall on deaf ears
So if you could magically fix the problem, which route would you choose? Would you replace the Hebrew/Aramaic tefillos with some good, entertaining English stuff, or would you open people’s hearts to the traditional tefillos?
I have heard from Rabbanim that speeding up the davening does cut down on the talking so OP has backing when he posts that.
Sure, less talking can be accomplished in 2 hours than 3, and faster davening yields fewer talking opportunities for those who are actually trying to say all of the tefillos.
