My memories of the TLM of my childhood are somewhat hazy, I'll admit, but I don't ever remember that happening.

I've also been to one TLM in recent memory (not in the USA) and there was definitely no reading of the Epistle and Gospel in the vernacular.

Is that a general thing in the US now??

It has been my experience, that in weekday low masses, when no sermon is given the epistle and gospel are not re-read in the vernacular. However, I have always heard them re-read in the vernacular at every Sunday mass, and every other Solemn Feast day, and any other day when a sermon is given.

I guess I cannot say what is the "general thing" in the US, or anywhere else, because my experience is limited. I may have been making an error by assuming my experience is general. And, I have no memory of the TLM before the council - I was born after it closed. =D
