Decode Baby-talk!

Perl, 82 bytes

Includes +1 for -a

Give input on STDIN:

perl -M5.010 baby.pl <<< "OOaGOG GoGOOoGoU gAA bLAA GOUGoOUgAIGAI"

baby.pl:

#!/usr/bin/perl -a
say map{$A=$O=$_=uc;y/AEIOU/@/c;s/(\B.|.\B)/$$1+=$$1<4/eg;(A..I,K..Z)[5*$A+$O]}@F

This assumes a recent enough perl version where -a implies -n. If your perl is too old you will need to add an explicit -n option.

It also assumes babies can't say general ASCII strings that start with digits like 1 this will not work

alert(prompt().replace(/\S+ ?/g,x=>(g=r=>(q=(x.match(/[aeiou]{2,}/gi)+"").split(r).length-1)>4?4:q,(g(/a/i)*5+g(/o/i)+10)*20/19|0).toString(36)))

Replaces each word (and the following space) with its corresponding letter.

s.split` `.map().join`` is 3 bytes longer:

alert(prompt().split` `.map(x=>(g=r=>(q=(x.match(/[aeiou]{2,}/gi)+"").split(r).length-1)>4?4:q,(g(/a/i)*5+g(/o/i)+10)*20/19|0).toString(36)).join``)

This was a pretty good way to kill a couple of hours.

Requires a brainfuck interpreter that uses 8-bit wrapping cells, allows you to go left from cell 0 and returns 0 if , is used when stdin is empty. In my experience, these are the most common settings.

This program does not consider Y a vowel, but if OP wants it to it's an easy fix.

It seems like writing this would be a daunting task but if you have some familiarity with the language there's nothing surprising or new in the code. Standard brainfuck tactics: Read the input but make sure you leave a couple of empty cells between each byte, use those empty cells to store data about the input, use the data you stored to decide how to transform it and spit something out at the end. In this case it was get the input, set it all to uppercase, figure out which cells are vowels, throw that information away after using it to determine which cells are next to vowels, set everything that isn't next to a vowel to some value that will never be relevant so they're not in the way later, and you're basically done. From there you just have to count your As and Os, multiply As by 5 and add the number of Os, special case anything above 8 to avoid J and output. I did choose to handle this one word at a time, rather than taking the whole input at once, so I had to set up the part of the code that reads stdin to break at 0 or 32, but that's not too big of a problem (just wrap the subtraction by 32 in a conditional so it doesn't happen if the value is already 0, then correct for any < or > instructions you missed later).

I don't know how helpful it will be because I wrote it mostly to keep my thoughts straight rather than as a real explanation, but here's the code with my comments and its original indentation:

+[[>>>,[>++++[<-------->-]]<]get an entire word of input
                            each character lowered by 32
                            two empty cells between characters
                            stops when reaching a space or null byte

any lowercase letters have become uppercase; anything with a value below 65 used
to be an uppercase character; fix it

<<[>]<-[+                for each character until hitting 1:
  [<+>>+<-]              make a backup
  subtract 64 from the character but stop if it hits 0
  ----[>>+<<----]>>+     generate the number 64
  [                      64 times:
    <[                     if the character is not 0:
      -                    subtract 1
      <                    go to a guaranteed 0 cell to break the loop
    ]

all characters without a vowel beside them have been set to 255
all characters with a vowel beside them are set to itself minus 1

notable charaters are: 'A' minus 1 = 64
                       'O' minus 1 = 78
