# Pig Latin
Implement a program that translates from English to Pig Latin.
Pig Latin is a made-up children's language that's intended to be
confusing. It obeys a few simple rules (below), but when it's spoken
quickly it's really difficult for non-children (and non-native speakers)
to understand.
- **Rule 1**: If a word begins with a vowel sound, add an "ay" sound to
the end of the word.
- **Rule 2**: If a word begins with a consonant sound, move it to the
end of the word, and then add an "ay" sound to the end of the word.
There are a few more rules for edge cases, and there are regional
variants too.
See <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig_latin> for more details.
