Why is this Pig Latin solution wrong?

I've solve the Pig Latin in Python in a couple of ways. These ways were using a variable to save the words translation and were passing the Test 1, 2 and 5 correctly. Despite that I tried by slicing the input then printing the words and it worked that way. Yet I want to know why my first solving wasn't correct and if it's a good solution in terms of software quality. https://code.sololearn.com/c91kDatvjR6s/?ref=app

The first letter is deleted in the whole word and only once added at the end plus the ay.

Thanks for answering. Now I know why that wasn't working in those tests. I had to debug it better.

x="" for i in input().split(): x += i[1:] + i[0] + "ay " print (x)

It may come from the space after the string you add, "ay ", which could add an extra space at the end of the output string ?

JhMont Delorme the space at the end is ok. I have passed all cases with such a space at the end.
