Pig Latin Translator
Translate English into Pig Latin, the playful word game that shuffles the start of each word to the end.
The rules of the game
Pig Latin is a children's word game with simple rules: move the first consonant sound of a word to the end and add ay, so pig becomes igpay and banana becomes ananabay. Words starting with a vowel just get way on the end. Doing it by hand for a whole sentence is slow; this translates any text into Pig Latin instantly.
Type your text and it comes back in Pig Latin.
A bit of harmless fun
There is no serious use here, and that is the point — Pig Latin is a game, a way to write a note your little sibling has to puzzle out, or just a silly thing to do with words. It has been passed around playgrounds for generations, and part of the charm is that it sounds like nonsense until you know the trick. Ecodingday-way it-way is-way alf-hay the-way un-fay.
