# Pig Latin Translator

> Convert English to Pig Latin and back, with both the classic and consonant-cluster rules.

Pig Latin moves the opening consonant sound of each word to the end and adds "ay"; words starting with a vowel take "way" instead. This translator handles both directions and offers the two common rules — moving the entire consonant cluster, or only the first letter.

## FAQ

### Why is translating back sometimes wrong?

Because the transformation loses information. "Ingstray" could come from "string" or "stringy" — the rule does not record how many letters moved. The decoder assumes the longest trailing consonant run, which is right most of the time but not always.
