The various versions of the alphabet are all openly ciphers, thus it is unlikely that spoken Hylian is anything but gibberish (doesn't make all that much sense to write an actual language as a cipher of written Japanese or English, does it?).

That bit about Hylian
The various versions of the alphabet are all openly ciphers, thus it is unlikely that spoken Hylian is anything but gibberish (doesn't make all that much sense to write an actual language as a cipher of written Japanese or English, does it?). The functional Hylian language is a fan project, and thus Nintendo has not produced any language in the past, unless there is some other example.
Oh, and by the way I think I'm going to try to work out the details of spoken Inkling to see how far of a stretch formulating a grammar would be.
