History
Akkalan developed from the the language of the Arcadians, itself a descendant of the languages of the Cobble and Lokomo refugees who settled the land after the destruction of their homelands.
Akkalan branched off from the Arcadian language as tribes travelled into the rest of Hyrule, eventually setting in what would be known as Holodrum and Lanayru Province. Through contact and alliances with peoples including the Huskus, Picori, the Wizzrobes and the Wind Tribe, it had become the lingua franca of the Ancient Age, strongly influencing and being influenced by High Zoran. The Akkalan vernacular eventually evolved into Hylian, Gerudo, Labrynnian, Horonian, and Twili, but a standard form survives as the secret language of the Sheikah and Hylian nobility and clergy, mostly used for poetry and religious scripture.
