Pig Latin. It has all the words of its source language, in all their variants, plus its own variants (like "away-ay" or "way-ay"). This is obviously true, and you know that as well as I do. You may not have the moral fortitude to face this fact, and thus define your own standards that lead you to believe things like "this question can't be answered," but that is only due to your own refusal to face the self-evident objective count of words.

But I must object -- the words of the 'natural language' which spawns pig latin are not included in pig latin.  In a set-theoretic sense, of course.  Joe could clarify this if we could pry him away from his ticks.
