Sheikah (Language)

is the language used predominately by the BotW: in and.

Overview
The BotW: is found on BotW: architecture and artifacts, such as inside NaN Ancient Shrines It functions mainly as a cipher of the Latin alphabet, with a few inconsistent and demonstrably optional exceptions. These exceptions include the use of full stops to separate sentences, and a hyphen between some phrases.

This grammatical structure allows for sentences to dramatically change their flow, either as a continuous string or as a more spacious and readable text. The full stop symbol functions identically to the English period character, as well as being able to break a sentence from another without any need for spacial punctuation. Three full stops in a row form the equivalent to English ellipsis (…), while spaces are completely omitted between words, forming a composite of simple words (such as with the instructions on the portcullis in the BotW:, "SLIDEUP"). In many cases, these simple phrase compositions have been shown to repeat without such punctuation, leaving no clear point for where the passages of text begin or end.

In supplementary material, such as the promotional "BotW:" tapestry included with the Limited and Master Edition versions of, the BotW: has been used to romanize Japanese syllabograms.

The BotW: is systematically linear and angular in form, as all characters fit within an invisible, uniformly square shape. Because of this, it does not appear to thematically borrow from any known script. The BotW: seems to be foreign to NaN Hylians, who instead use the sixth BotW: script. Indeed, corrupted portions of the BotW: are incapable of being transliterated to BotW:, instead appearing legibly in the BotW:.

Despite having their own writing system, BotW: NaN Monks are capable of communicating to Link with ease. As both the Sixth Hylian and the BotW: scripts are ciphers of the Latin alphabet and are used to transcribe English, it may be that the BotW: script is intended to simply be an alternate writing system to allow the BotW: to communicate via text while excluding anyone unfamiliar with the cipher, befitting their secretive nature.
