Description
THIS IS THE FONT VERSION OF THE FULL ANCIENT HYLIAN ALPHABET:Now before you question how and where...yes I DID reinvent and fully create the missing letters. This is my "full" alphabet version which can be used with the Hylian Language. Call it, if you will, the Goddesses Hylian?
I did my best to make the new characters work well with the preexisting ones, and some are only slight alterations due to their relation to the root characters. There are 52 unique letters, but the basic A-Z can be used for English writing (the short i with one dot over it should be used for most English words).
I'm going to post up more information on how to use this, as well as my other Hylian alphabet in due time, but for now you can just refer to this really crummy hand written chart!
General Information
This is based on the Ancient Hylian from the Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.
The chart for the game version is here: [link]
and the game accurate font can be downloaded here: [link]
This version has additional characters which are needed to work with my fan created Hylian Language, which uses characters which translate to basic roman as well as syllabary letters.
This version of Ancient Hylian can be used in the same way as my more "modern" Hylian.
I have a wallpaper helper for that version here: [link]
And the font for that version can be downloaded here: [link]
My Hylian Language used to be hosted at Hyrule Realm. As I haven't been able to get the site back up due to personal life issues sapping my time, I will eventually be putting the language back online on a new site dedicated solely to the language. In the meantime I plan on getting some information back up here on DA as I can in the near future.
If you have any questions about the language, please send me a note.
For those of you who remember Hyrule Realm, I'm so terribly sorry that I had to take it down! I haven't forgotten, and I will get the language back online for use, it's just a lot of work. I hope you can all understand, and I very much appreciate the continued support. ♥
• I am fully aware of the fact that some of these look similar to Japanese Katakana and Hiragana. Contrary to those of you who want to say they ARE Japanese however, none of these are identical to Japanese kana and the similarities are not intentional. Any further commentary on the similarities are not necessary. Thank you anyway.
Check out the font if you like this! ^_^

Work on memorizing the written alphabet now and learning the language later when I start putting it back online will just be that much easier. ;3

Lol, no kidding! Because even if they've played Skyward Sword they'll be confused by the additional characters. ^^

Yep!! My one friend will probably figure it out.. but it will still be fun!!

Did you get some kind of language info to translate the letters to English or did you made them all up?

Please read the description. This is an adaptation of the alphabet from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. The ones not from the game however I made up.

Actually I did read the description I just don't quite get it since I haven't played Skyward Sword before. The question is which letters did you come up with?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ooh... if you check the game version font or chart if that's easier you can compare them. Actually, I should put that info in the description. I'll do that now. :3

Soooo if I got this straight you translated the letters according to the information in the game. Meaning there aren't any fake letters right?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
umm, right. This version here though has ones I created on my own based on the version seen in the game.

That's why I went ahead and posted the chart here, so people can at least write it on things like personal notes and fanart, things like that. So yes, go ahead. It IS free for personal use. :3

...No? Hylian is = the people of Hyrule, alphabet and/or language of Hyrule. It's based on info from the Legend of Zelda games but I like to take it all to a whole new level and have a real, speakable language with vocabulary, grammar, structure, and in some cases slightly varying dialect- the problem? I would love to refer you to the information but I'm still in the process of attempting to explain the grammar in a way that can be understood. I understand it like one would their own native language, so I can use it myself easier than I can write it down for others to learn. I'm getting there, though. ^^

The characters are very, very, very similar to Japanese and I think that is where people draw the connection. I quite honestly thought it was Japanese from the thumbnail, no offense meant.

None taken, I some of the are highly similar and could easily be confused from a first glance.

The work is very nice.

Oh Nintendo still won't make anything more than alphabets...that's where my own personal work, such as this expansion comes in. :3

And typos for the win! Somehow, however, they ate a whole word. I meant "I know some of..." :3

It's from The Legend of Zelda :3

Does anyone know the first ever languge?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well...that depends on what you mean. This is an alphabet, see, and though it's not online right now for various reasons I have a fully functional Hylian fan language.. that's what this is meant to go with. :3

I see! I was talking about cunieform. Although, I can't seem to remember it's origans.

This is pure win *-*
....I love you

Most of it's been taken out of kanna writing script

No it hasn't. It's similar, maybe, but no. Thanks for your input. >>

...Take the time you need on the font version--there are going to be quite a few anxious ones awaiting it, I wager!

Hehe seems like it! I'm shocked by all the views and favs this has gotten in just a few short hours, and it's only a simple chart! At the least there's the game version font I have, to hold people over. ;3

Should I ever write in ancient Hylian, your work shall be the first thing I reference! I just hope I can actually do it without going bonkers with all the grammatical needs.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha trust me, once I can upload the language and grammar again, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the grammar. Though it is different than English, it's rather simplistic. ^_^

Wow. Very nice indeed. DO want font !!
