Hello, i recently learned Pig Latin and how it works (some stupid hard shakespeare language in Python lol) and in CodeAcademy it says "print Pig Latin" in pig latin which i do not know how and i need some help, here is the code i entered for the program on the site as i copied it and learned it from Youtube vids, then modified it on pycharm and enjoyed it, Please help XD
(my first post)

def main():
        lst = ['sh', 'gl', 'ch', 'ph', 'tr', 'br', 'fr', 'bl', 'gr', 'st', 'sl', 'cl', 'pl', 'fl']
        sentence = input('Type what you would like translated into pig-latin and press ENTER: ')
        sentence = sentence.split()
        for k in range(len(sentence)):
                i = sentence[k]
                if i[0] in ['a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u']:
                        sentence[k] = i+'ay'
                elif t(i) in lst:
                        sentence[k] = i[2:]+i[:2]+'ay'
                elif i.isalpha() == False:
                        sentence[k] = i
                else:
                        sentence[k] = i[1:]+i[0]+'ay'
        return ' '.join(sentence)

def t(str):
        return str[0]+str[1]

if __name__ == "__main__":
        x = main()
        print(x)

I mean , how do i make an interactive program with Pig Latin

If you want to translate more than one sentence, you can use a loop

if __name__ == "__main__":
    while True:
        x = main()
        print(x)
