For example, "please be quiet or I'll cry" becomes "ease-play e-bay iet-quay or-way I'll-way y-cray"; {i} secret language or wordplay formed from English by moving the first consonants to the end of the words and adding the extra "ay" syllables (for example "pig Latin" in pig Latin language is "igpay atinlay"); A jargon systematically formed by the transposition of the initial consonant to the end of the word and the suffixation of an additional syllable, as igpay atinlay for pig Latin; backslang
