I'm not sure if this should be in \q\, \qa\ or some other board, but as this is more of a project rather than a question or meta issue, here I am.

I'm trying to make a simple program to translate English to Soy Speak. The issue, I don't know Soy Speak that well YET. I have read a page on the 'ki that explains enough for a basic version; however, there may be cases where the rules for certain things do not apply such as the following: [Reddit space ahead]
  1. To, which becomes 'o (but note that do does not become 'o, it simply stays as do)
  2. Be, which becomes 'e (but note that me does not become 'e, it simply stays as me).
  3. Soyjak Wiki becomes 'ki (or even 'iki) [The latter can conflict with names that end in 'iki' like Niki, so unless you have to determine the original word based off of the context and past non-'postraphised, both end up being 'iki (HASH COLLISION REFERENCE??/??) {actually, this is pretty keyed. This should be a part of the language}]
[Reddit space behind]
Any modifications that happen to Soy Speak or any words that you have evidence that a word could be hard to properly translate probably will be considered.

I'll try to get the 'odebase on 'ithub because I want YOU to peer review the Glyphoslop that is my code. Any alternative publicly accessible repositories/VCSs are welcome by the way. Another thing, any suggestions as to how I should structure my code, as in, how code for a translator should be written, is accepted. I'll be writing the code very modular because I gotta get into the habit of writing like a developer, also uhh why not.

Devlog Nobody Cares:
Fixed da spelling mistakes because I didn't review da post long enough to correct any wrongs like an irl slopjak.
 
Did you even begin making it in the first place?
No, I'm not obsessed enough to care.
Additionally, I am a bit stuck on how I should make the translator part.
I was thinking of making it like a "module," what I mean by that is I make a runnable file that can take string inputs from other files and convert them into soy speak. Additionally, I wanted a file that contained exceptions to any rules stated prior, or were the only variation of that word (for example, to, so, ho, go and lo would all technically be turned into 'o however that's just muh hecking hash collisions so only one of those words turn to 'o and that is determined in the file, else its not turned into 'oy 'peak)
 
Make it so it also installs a ton of bloatware and allows you to access all of the personal files on the pc of whoever runs it

Easy just use if and then statements

if word = low quality then output = coal

if word = amazing then output = gemmy
