Program:

File name: “PigLatin.java”

//Import necessary header files

import java.util.Scanner;

//Define a class named PigLatin

public class PigLatin

{

    //Define a boolean method isVowel

    public static boolean isVowel(char c)

    {

        //Return the value

return (c == 'a' || c == 'e' || c == 'i' || c == 'o' || c == 'u');

    }

    //Define the method pigLatin

    static String pigLatin(String s)

    {

        //Store the index of the first vowel

        int len = s.length();

        int index = -1;

        //For loop is executed until i exceeds the string length

        for (int i = 0; i < len; i++)

        {

/*If y is the first letter in a word, it is treated as a consonant; otherwise, it is treated as a vowel*/

            if (isVowel(s.charAt(i)) || (i > 0 && s...
