#Take the users input
words = raw_input("Enter some text to translate to pig latin: ")
print "You entered: ", words

#Now I need to break apart the words into a list
words = words.split(' ')

#Now words is a list, so I can manipulate each one usinga loop

for i in words:
    if len(i) >= 3: #I only want to translate words greater than 3 characters
        i = i + "%say" % (i[0]) 
        i = i[1:]
        print i
    else:
        pass

does this work at all

Okay good. Have a good day. Also i recommend possibly putting your code in a loop so they can translate more than once before the program stops that is the only recommendation I have for it otherwise it is well done.

okay i am adding a

while():
    #Take the users input
words = raw_input("Enter some text to translate to pig latin: ")
print "You entered: ", words

#Now I need to break apart the words into a list
words = words.split(' ')

#Now words is a list, so I can manipulate each one usinga loop

for i in words:
    if len(i) >= 3: #I only want to translate words greater than 3 characters
        i = i + "%say" % (i[0]) 
        i = i[1:]
        print i
    else:
        pass

try it now

That won’t work, you have to either do a while true loop or a while loop.

Yes you have to have a while true.

You know what it works as it is and I can’t get a loop to work with this code so just keep it as it is okay? It won’t work with a loop for some reason so it will be good as is. Good work
