Sheikah Language Translations

Jump to search
The Sheikah Language appears in Breath of the Wild and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. As its name implies, the Sheikah Language appears exclusively on Sheikah architecture and technology.
The Sheikah Language is based on English, as its letters are a cipher of the Latin alphabet.

Calamity Ganon Tapestry
Whereas most Sheikah text enciphers English text, an exception to this rule is the Calamity Ganon Tapestry found in Impa's house, which instead enciphers a romanization of Japanese text.

Notes
- ↑ The pillars connected to the roof cause the first and last letters to split from the rest of the text.
- ↑ Each line of text appears as Terrako scans the respective characters. The text first appears as random symbols, which quickly cycle into the correct letters. Since Terrako is still booting when Robbie is scanned, his name is never fully shown.
- ↑ Sheikah text background not used in entire book, only in some final sections such as Pages 360-366 and 368-412, also appears as trim text in upper left of page 358
