Posted on January 29 2018 by Calamity Siothrún
DeafGamer is a member of the Deaf community who also enjoys video games. It looks like he’s been busy with creating videos that show people how to make names for certain characters in sign language. In a recent video, DeafGamer created a list of Zelda characters, which range from Link to races like the Deku. Here is a list of how the names are created and what they convey:
Link – bravery with L, sword with L
Triforce – triangle, downside up and upside down
Zelda – legend in shape of z
Ganon – ugly, pig with G
Ganondorf – evil with G
Epona – horse with E
Dark Link – dark Link
Rauru – make moustache, sage
Saria – s, a, green, e
Darunia – flex, sage
Princess Ruto – make wave from arm, sage
Impa – protector, sage
Nabooru – long nose, sage
Sheik – ninja, two-faced
Hylian – make points on ears, people
Sheikah – circle around eye, people
Rito – bird, altitude with bird, people
Zora – make headtail, swim, people
Goron – rock, shell with G, people
Gerudo – woman, shape of scimitar, people
Talon – boss with T
Malon – make hair with M
Deku – Plant with P
This video is great, because it is allowing people to find a way to talk about video games in a way that may have seemed unlikely before this point in time. But, what do you guys think? Leave us a comment down below!
