When I was in elementary school, I loved secret codes. But instead of writing in code, like Alec and Gina do, I spoke in code, with a friend of mine named Amanda. We made up a code that we called “iggle.” The rules for speaking in “iggle” were pretty easy. Any time there was a consonant sound in a word, you added “iggle” to it. You pronounced the vowel sounds the same way you did in the regular word. So, for example, my first name was pronounced Jiggle-ih-liggle. Hello was higgle-eh-liggle-o. It was a lot of fun, though we sounded pretty silly whenever we spoke that way.
