Add Hylian to Duolingo's language course offerings


Add Hylian to Duolingo's language course offerings
The Issue
In the diverse and colorful world of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, the Hylian language plays a crucial role in enhancing players' experience and immersion. Hyrule's rich lore, culture, and history are deeply intertwined with its language, Hylian. Fans of the game series, young and old, from beginners to seasoned gamers, share an interest in learning Hylian to deepen their connection with this beloved universe.
With over 10 million active users, Duolingo is a leading platform for language learning and a household name across the globe. Adding Hylian to its curriculum would not only enrich its offerings but also respond to the desires of an enthusiastic community of gamers eager to dive deeper into the mythology of Hyrule. Such a move would foster a greater understanding and appreciation of the artistry and storytelling in the iconic game series.
Historically, constructed languages like Klingon from Star Trek and High Valyrian from Game of Thrones have found a welcoming home on Duolingo, demonstrating a viable interest in learning fictional languages. Hylian, with its intriguing script and cultural significance, can join their ranks, capturing the hearts of fans worldwide.
We kindly ask Duolingo to consider the potential benefits of adding Hylian to its language offerings. By doing so, they will not only expand their platform but also perpetuate the legacy of one of the most adored video game franchises in history. Please sign this petition to show your support for the inclusion of Hylian on Duolingo and help bring this fascinating language to life for fans everywhere.
