Translate text found the in the Legend of Zelda video games. Legend of Zelda Hylian Translator allows for bi-directional translation from English and/or Japanese to the various languages found within the Legend of Zelda video game series. The app includes support for Skyward Sword, Twilight Princess (both Gamecube and Wii versions), Link Between Worlds, as well as Ocarina of Time (also found in Majora's Mask), and Wind Waker (also found in a few other Zelda games).
APP INSTRUCTIONS - Please Read!
The translator is simple to use. Type in the text you wish to translate in the field provided, select the game's Hylian that you wish for the text to be translated to, and press "Translate!". For the two games listed with "(JP)" (Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker), you can either use your android keyboard to enter native Japanese, or simply enter text in English and let the app translate the text automatically to Japanese behind the scenes and then to the correct Hylian.
To access the Hylian to English/Japanese mode, simply press your menu key, and select it from the menu provided. You will be presented with a similar view as before. A dropdown for the game, a text box, but instead of a translation button, you will see a customized Hylian keyboard and a Japanese to English (and vice versa) translation button.
In this mode, the keyboard will switch to whichever game's Hylian you have selected. Then you simply enter the symbols you see inside the game (or anywhere else you might find Hylian text!) and the translation will appear in the text box above. For the two games labeled "(JP)" (Wind Waker and Ocarina of Time), the translation will initially appear as Japanese. Simply press "JPN-ENG" to get a generated translation from Japanese to English.
*Note that the English-Japanese (and vice versa) translation may not be accurate and for the best results it is advised to use Japanese with the games listed with "JP" and English for the ones without. However, for convenience, automatic translation has been added to the app.
*When translating from the Wind Waker Hylian, some symbols will include two lines or a small square above the symbol. Keys for these were not included. Instead, two buttons with those markings appear at the right side of the keyboard (between the clear and backspace buttons). Press the one you see after pressing the related symbol itself.
To return to the original English/Japanese to Hylian mode, simply press the menu key once again, and select it from the menu that appears.

The translator messes up Z and X in Twilight Princess Hylian, and both Skyward Sword and ALBW have repeating letters in their alphabets. The only completely accurate one (afaik) is Gerudo. This app would be great if it were accurate, I'll give 5 stars for the fix.

ALL THE TRANSLATIONS ARE FAKE IF YOU TYPE RANDOMLY IST SAYS STUFF LIKE HAPPY NEW YEAR AND SH*T LIKE THAT BIC*H THIS SH*T IS FAKE

It's completely useless. I don't even understand why people are putting positive feedback. Any Zelda character would be translated to Japanese afaik. Worse still is the existence of their own alphabet at all. Shouldn't we assume or pretend that we live there and can read?

I think the app is great. To those who complain because the translations aren't accurate because letters repeat and so on, I have done a lot, and I mean a lot of research and these characters actually do stand for more than one letter in the English alphabet. To the people complaining about the JP to EN translations, I get your point, but obviously I think it was meant as a joke, not as a literal translation... If you want an actual JP to EN translation use google translate... Seriously... Btw if you read this far its really interesting to note that BOTW actually on at least one occasion uses the alphabet from ALBW. A great addition would be adding the sheikah language from BOTW

I enjoy this app a lot! It seems to work very well, and to all the complainers, how would one even be able to copy and paste nonexistent symbols anyway? My only suggestion would be a reverse translator of some sort. Like, maybe you could choose the language and then type in whatever "letters" you see in the game text and it translates to English letters? I don't know how hard that would be, but I think it would be very cool if at all possible!

You should add Twilight Princess HD for the wii u, they even have stamps in the game but I want an easier way to read what's on the map. Can you please add a translation for that game. I will rate it 5 star when you do.

Everything except ocarina of time works. It just comes up blank. Great app though!

All these people saying that you can't copy the Hylian, does it matter? I doubt any of you complaining you can't copy the Hylian ever took the time to translate all of the different Hylian languages. Give him some credit. At least there is an app. Ever heard of a pen and paper? I, personally, love the app. It's the best one on the market in my opinion. A spoken language would be nice, but seeing as no where in the games anyone speaks it (I assume), it is not possible.
