Can someone help with that , what’s wrong with my code ?

Your code so far


function translatePigLatin(str) {
  let aywa = str.search(/[aieou]/)
  let slt = str.split('')
  if(aywa>0){
    let spliced = slt.splice(0,aywa);
    slt.push(spliced+'ay');
    return slt.join('');
  }
  else if(aywa==0){
    slt.push('way');
    return slt.join('');
  }
  else{
    return str;
  }
}

translatePigLatin("consonant");

So i edited the return in the first if statment to this

return slt.join('').replace(/\W/g, '')

But i don’t know what the last condition wants, what should i do to words that have no vowels

For this, you will have to make a small change in this line:

Think of what could it be?

The instructions (seen below) tell you what to do with such a word. If a word is all consonants, it is just one big consonant cluster which gets moved to the end and has ‘ay’ added on to it. So a word like rhythm becomes rhythmay.

Pig Latin takes the first consonant (or consonant cluster) of an English word, moves it to the end of the word and suffixes an “ay”

right , so now that i have done it , could you comment on the way i wrote that code , what should i focus on later on
