Consisting of 26 different characters, it is directly based on the modern Latin alphabet. It appears at the Gerudo's Training Ground and Spirit Temple (where it appears written in order and its entirety on the stone to the for the stairs at the entrance) in Ocarina of Time, sparsely at the Arbiter's Grounds in, a stairway in Ganon's Castle in  and throughout Gerudo encampments and Gerudo Town in.
