Hylian Language Translations
From Zelda Legends Wiki

Description
There are two lettering systems of Hylia, possibly representative of two separate languages.
The first alphabet, introduced in OoT and used as well in Majora's Mask, is very primitive. Many sounds do no exist. The choice of letters is based on the basic Japanese alphabet.
The second alphabet, introduced in The Wind Waker, and used in The Minish Cap and other later Zelda games, is based on the complete Japanese alphabet.
The languages, like Japanese, use one character for a vowel or consonant+vowel sound. Hylian words translate directly into Japanese words.
