Frequently Asked Questions
The standard rule: take the leading consonant cluster of each word, move it to the end, then add 'ay'. 'Hello' becomes 'ellohay'. Words starting with a vowel just get 'way' added at the end, so 'apple' becomes 'appleway'.
'No' becomes 'onay'. The single leading consonant 'n' moves to the end, and 'ay' is added.
No, Pig Latin is a language game — a way to disguise English by following simple rules. It's been popular since the 19th century. Despite the name, it has nothing to do with Latin.
We only transform letter sequences; punctuation, spaces, and digits pass through unchanged. Capitalization on the first letter of each word is preserved.
Our translator treats consonant-only words as all-consonant and adds 'ay' at the end — 'rhythm' becomes 'rhythmay'. Some Pig Latin variants treat 'y' as a vowel; we treat it as a consonant for simplicity.
