Pig Latin:
To speak pig Latin, take the first consonant of the word, add ay to it, and move it to the end of the word. For example, to say “Cody” in pig Latin, you would say “ody” first, then “Cay,” to form “ody-cay.” If the word is only one syllable, like “Quinn,” use the first letter (or two) to form the end of the word, such as “inn-quay.”
