    Choose the pig latin version of the word "ultimate"

    • Ultimate

    • Yay-ultimate

    • Ultimate-yay

    • Timate-ay

    Correct Answer
    A. Ultimate-yay
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "ultimate-yay" because in Pig Latin, the rule is to move the first consonant or consonant cluster of a word to the end, and add "ay" to it. In this case, the word "ultimate" starts with a consonant cluster "ult", so it is moved to the end and "ay" is added, resulting in "ultimate-yay".

    In order to form Pig latin words, you need to start with a consonant

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    To form Pig Latin words, you do not necessarily need to start with a consonant. In Pig Latin, the general rule is to move the first consonant or consonant cluster of a word to the end, and then add "ay". However, if a word starts with a vowel, you simply add "way" to the end instead. Therefore, words can start with both consonants and vowels in Pig Latin.

    Choose the pig latin word for the word "my"

    • My

    • My-yay

    • Y-may

    • My-ya

    Correct Answer
    A. Y-may
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "y-may" because in Pig Latin, the word "my" is translated by moving the first consonant sound to the end of the word and adding "ay" afterwards. In this case, the first consonant sound in "my" is "m", so it is moved to the end of the word and "ay" is added, resulting in "y-may".

    Choose the pig latin word for the word rythm

    • Rhythm-yay

    • Hythm-ay

    • Rythm

    • Ythm-rhay

    Correct Answer
    A. Ythm-rhay
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "ythm-rhay." In Pig Latin, the rule is to move the first consonant or consonant cluster of a word to the end, followed by "ay." In the word "rhythm," the first consonant cluster is "r" and "ythm" is the remaining part. Therefore, when converted to Pig Latin, it becomes "ythm-rhay."

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    The suffix that needs to be added for words beginning with vowels is:

    • -ay

    • -yay

    • -iay

    • -yai

    Correct Answer
    A. -yay
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "-yay" because when adding a suffix to words that begin with a vowel, the suffix "-yay" is used. This is a common rule in English where the letter "y" is added after the initial vowel sound to create a new word. Examples of words that follow this rule include "okay" and "essay."
