Don't know why you would need this...
Currently, symbols are not corrected (Code wasn't working).
Nice :3

Pig Latin Is Nice To Speak In.
It is fun instead of nice, but yes :3
UPDATE: Added capitalization!

Uh...
Also,

Yep, that's an issue.

@helicoptur and @sir_kitten2, did you read the comment?
Yes but my brain forgot about it.
um...
it should say "egolay atmanbay" (or "ego-lay atman-bay")
Yeah, it doesnt work well.
You're too fond of the SPLIT block. This is at its heart a job for recursion:
(This uses the Words and Sentences library, which you should load as the first step in solving any problem involving text!)
Now you can add frills for individual words:
Note that the first IF uses a recursive call; the only call to SIMPLE PIG LATIN is in the simple case at the end. This ensures that a word with an initial capital vowel is handled correctly.
Finally, you can handle multiple words this way:
If you don't like the handling of the ! the place to fix it is in another IF in word to pig latin, with a recursive call as in the case of initial capitals.
The red SENTENCE block is used here to convert a string of words into a list of words. (It can do other things, too.) It takes care of leading, trailing, and/or multiple spaces correctly.
P.S. Here it is.
P.P.S. You are of the "yay" sect; I am of the "way" sect. ;~)
I'm of the "ay" sect.
also, here's my code, very messy though.

So am I, in practice, because it avoids hairing up the code unnecessarily. :~)
[Dons teacher hat.] Your code is messy for two reasons:
-
You don't instinctively create well-named helper procedures to make your code self-documenting. In my version, for example, I didn't even have to show the code for VOWEL?, CAPITALIZE, ALL BUT FIRST LETTER OF, etc., to make the inner workings of the definitions I did show apparent.
-
You don't see this as a fundamentally recursive problem. I don't know whether that's because you're iffy on recursion in general or you've just been poisoned too long by a looping perspective on pig Latin in particular. When teaching younger kids I just show what I've here called SIMPLE PIG LATIN as the complete solution.
oh, no, I actually thought about it after I made my code. I would've used recursion if I didn't start making it a map block.
(oh wait, I forgot to convert the list to text, lol)
that may be true
this is actually my first time making a functional pig latin translator (I have an unfinished one on scratch, made before I knew about snap)
It says “lol” is “lay” but “lol” is actually “ollay”
