Pig Latin is a referred to as a code, and sometimes people use it to disguise their words. Pig latin has a special set of rules. When you want to say a word that starts with a consonant, you move the consonant to the back of the word, adding -ay. (Cat becomes At-cay). If the word starts with a vowel, you keep the word and add -ay, -yay-, or -way. (Also becomes Also-yay, or also-ay.) For compound words, such as sunflower, you split the word into it's two parts, sun and flower, and then follow the rules above. So sunflower becomes
