Sparkly's Simple Guide To Speaking igPay atinLay:

1.) Pick a word: Cat
2.) Find the first vowel in that word: Cat
3.) Move all the consonants before the vowel to the end of the word: atC
4.) Add 'ay' to the end of it: atCay
5.) Remember that pronunciation is key when you are trying to speak it. Let's look at an example.
No = onay
On = onay
They are spelt the same! How will we know the difference if we are speaking it!? Simple. The 'o' in 'no' is a hard o. The 'o' in 'on' is a soft o so even though they are spelt the same, they are pronounced differently!

I'll show you with a few other words as an example:

Sentence: Hello, I am one Sparkly Muffinz.
Becomes: elloHay, Iay amay oneay arklySpay uffinzMay.

Please note:
+ All words in pig latin end with 'ay'
+ All words in pig latin start with a vowel.

Hope this helps!

... I never knew that!

I was thought differently...

What about words like 'enough'?

(OughEnay?)
(I say "enough" as "enoughay". Probably incorrect though)
Yup, enoughay. Always look for the very first vowel in the word. If the word starts with a vowel, great! Your job is even easier. Just slap on that 'ay'. :)

What if I want to use it as 'oughEnay'?

And what about words like 'my', 'type', 'chrysanthemum', 'hype' and so on?

Igpay atinlay eemssay otay ebay unfay, osay Iay illway ytray otay eakspay itay.

My -> ymay
type -> ypetay
chrysanthemum -> ysanthemumchray
hype -> ypehay
Note about this: If the "Y" sounds like a vowel it is treated as one, for example, "my". The "Y" sounds like the vowel "I", so it's treated like a vowel as a result.

that's what I read somewhere.

I guess, but it's much easier to just go with ymay, ypetay and ysanthemumchray, because it's easier to make out the word if you're typing it. But if you're speaking it, it really doesn't matter, and that's what most people do so x3.
