# 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. Please note that "xr" and "yt" at the beginning of a word make vowel sounds (e.g. "xray" -> "xrayay", "yttria" -> "yttriaay"). - **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. Consonant sounds can be made up of multiple consonants, a.k.a. a consonant cluster (e.g. "chair" -> "airchay"). - **Rule 3**: If a word starts with a consonant sound followed by "qu", move it to the end of the word, and then add an "ay" sound to the end of the word (e.g. "square" -> "aresquay"). - **Rule 4**: If a word contains a "y" after a consonant cluster or as the second letter in a two letter word it makes a vowel sound (e.g. "rhythm" -> "ythmrhay", "my" -> "ymay"). 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. ## Setup Go through the setup instructions for TypeScript to install the necessary dependencies: http://exercism.io/languages/typescript ## Requirements Install assignment dependencies: ```bash $ yarn install ``` ## Making the test suite pass Execute the tests with: ```bash $ yarn test ``` ## Source The Pig Latin exercise at Test First Teaching by Ultrasaurus [https://github.com/ultrasaurus/test-first-teaching/blob/master/learn_ruby/pig_latin/](https://github.com/ultrasaurus/test-first-teaching/blob/master/learn_ruby/pig_latin/) ## Submitting Incomplete Solutions It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
