How many of you know pig Latin? My family used that a lot when I was a kid. They thought I didn't understand it.

Then there was opish.
"op" after every consonant.
eg. Event became Evopinoptop.

In"Gold Diggers of 1933" A not yet famous Ginger Rogers sang "We're in the Money" partially in pig latin. I can't give links from my tablet, but I'm sure it's easy to find on You Tube.

That's as good as a guy I worked with. Took him home, note on the front door from his wife that the keys to the house were in the mailbox. DUH,!!!!!!

That's a clever place to hide the keys. Who would think to look there? It's good she was security-conscious and locked the doors.

esyay. My parents spoke it to confuse us kids. It was sometime later before they realized I understood. It was my laughing at something Dad said to Mom.

Yea but the note on the front door for everyone to read where the keys were, not to bright.
