How do you say the in Pig Latin?

You can't say "the" in Pig Latin because it's a definite article, not a word that follows the usual Pig Latin rules. Pig Latin works by moving the first consonant of a word to the end and adding "ay."

Here's an example:

* English: "cat"

* Pig Latin: "atcay"

Since "the" has no consonants, it doesn't fit the rules.
