Question: is PigLatin primarily a phenomenon of children in English speaking countries, or are the same rules followed by children of other countries?

watashi wa nihongo no gakusei desu.
"I am a Japanese language student"

In Japanese language, I believe that the syllable is more of a fundamental unit that 'consonant' or 'vowel'.  (Japanese characters, hiragana and katakana, form a syllabary rather than an alphabet.)  So little kids in Japan would probably follow a different set of rules to create their own mock language.

I hope someone knows about this.  I never thought of it before, and now I'm really interested.
