+The task is to translate text from English to Pig Latin.
+The translation is defined using four rules, which look at the pattern of vowels
+and consonants at the beginning of a word. These rules look at each word's use
+of vowels and consonants:
+
+vowels: the letters a, e, i, o, and u
+consonants: the other 21 letters of the English alphabet
