Recently I started thinking a little bit. What exactly is the relevance of the Hylian Language in Timeline Theories? Is it evidence concerning a game's placement, or is irrelevant to the placement of the game?

As for me, I don't see any reason why not to partially base the placement of the games on the form of Hylian used in a game since, to my knowledge, Nintendo has never said that it's irrelevant.

What about you?

It may have a slight relavence. As with all languages, Hylian may have evolved over the years. Things may have changed which could show how old and far back things are , though this is almost impossible in Zelda games, seeing as there are multiple tanslations, none of which have been offically confirmed. *correct me if i'm wrong*

Well an example being the Hidden Village's sign saying Kakariko Village, stating it was the original Kakariko Village can be relevant.
