Rules and Examples
==================

----------
Rules
----------

If word begins with consonant sound, all letters before the initial vowel are placed at the end of the word sequence. Then, "ay" is added.

* pig => igpay
* banana => ananabay
* trash => ashtray
* happy => appyhay
* duck => uckday
* glove => oveglay

If word begins with vowel sounds or a silent letter, one just adds "yay" to the end.

* eat => eatyay
* omelet => omeletyay
* are => areyay





---------------------------------
Interpretations and Assumptions
---------------------------------

Following are some assumptions made in implementation

^^^^^^
Casing
^^^^^^

The cases of individual words are to be preserved. For example for the sentence 
  Who are you?
title case of word who is preserved after translation
  Owhay areyay ouyay?

^^^^^^^^^^^
Punctuation
^^^^^^^^^^^

Punctuation is preserved. 
Special case is if punctuation is part of the word such as 
' in don't
it is considered as a single word and translated
to on'tday
