Practice Some Pig Greek

Learning Pig Greek takes practice to start, but once you get a feel for how the words are formed, you'll be exercising your brain and chatting away. Pig Greek uses four sounds (chosen because a lot of real Greek words have these sounds in them): "Iklees", "Yiklees", "os", and "kro."

If a group of your friends learn together, you could have conversations.

Iklees
: Use for "I"

Yiklees: Use for "you"

For words beginning with consonants, move the consonants to the end, and add "os." For example, "I stay" would be "Icklees ay-stos." "You go" would be "Yiklees oh-gos."

For words starting with vowels
, add "kro" before the word. For example, the words "am," "are," and "is" would be "kro-am," "kro-are," and "kro-is."

Have fun practicing!
