Category collecting sites written in or about the playful code language Pig Latin, also known as Dog Latin. It is a jargon popular among children, systematically formed by the transposition of the initial consonant to the end of the word and the suffixation of an additional syllable, as in "Igpay Atinlay" for "Pig Latin".
