Pig Latin is a pseudo-language that is another way of speaking in code. It’s a little more common and a little easier to deduce. [2] X Research source
Tree: Tree Bottle: Bot / tle (pronounced tul) Symmetry: Sym (sim) / me (meh) / try (tree)
tree: tridigee bottle: bidigottle symmetry: symm"idig"etry For a word like “street,” remember to keep the consonants together (it’s still one syllable). The word, in gibberish, would be pronounced, “stridigeet. "
“My name” is not “mi-thag-eye nay-tha-game,” it’s “mI-dig-eye nI-dig-ame. " “-idig-” has the same initial sound as “dig” (not “pig”), in case you were curious. In the IPA, it’s a schwa, or /ə/. Think of a caveman grunt.

Is there a chothagair? Maybe a bothaged? Or a cothagompothagutothager? How quickly can you decipher the words in this secret language? What sounds are flubbing you up?
“My name is”: Mothagy nothagame othagis [yothagour nothagame hothagere] “How are you today?”: Hothagow othagare yothagou tothagodothagay? “Yes, I can speak gibberish, how could you tell?”: Yothages, othagi cothagan spothageak Gothagibbothagerothagish, hothagow cothagould yothagou tothagell?”
“-idig-”: “Go” becomes “gidigo. " “-uddag-”: “Go” becomes “guddago. " “-uvug-”: “Go” becomes “guvugo. " “-othag-”: “Go” becomes gothago. " “-Othag-” is the hardest to say quickly of this list (“th” and “g” are farther apart in the mouth than “d” and “g” or “v” and “g” and thus take a split-second longer to pronounce). Once you get fast at “-othag-”, the rest will be cake (cothagake!).
Hopefully you can convince a buddy to do this with you. What’s the point in speaking in code if you can’t exchange classified information in front of people? Or, it’s possible you have friends that can already do this and you just don’t know. Sothago othagask!
Hold off until you’re confident with it. Speaking gibberish can be quite impressive if you can do it decisively and with confidence. Just as with any language, you have to practice it often. Or else you’ll find yourself tongue-tied and stuttering.
