Zelda is a Polyglot, someone fluent in multiple languages. This is true regardless of what verse or time she’s in and whether she is Royal or not. Her parents believed it was important to be fluent across the globe, and so many of her tutors/teachers were picked specifically with this in mind. During their lessons, Zelda was made to only speak and write in their native language, which helped her from an early age to develop fluency.
Once she had a few common languages down it became much easier, as many languages are somewhat connected/build upon one another. She tries to practice often so as not to “lose” her knowledge, and so will sometimes write her notes in various languages, alternating regularly.
Among her fluent languages include:
Hylian (native language)
Sheikan (native language)
Gerudo
Sign language
Goron
Zoran
Select third-party counties (those considered in high power)
She is also somewhat fluent in:
Ancient Hylian
Picori
Twii
Various third-party countries (Usually those which have been involved in her global charity work)

How can you make me feel bad and be put off just because of my supposed 'attitude' and the way I talk when I'm upset? It's not even directed at you it's literally just me explaining my feelings and then when you ignore me just because you don't like the way that I'm talking do you know how shit that feels??? I don't know what it is and why you don't have any ability to separate when I'm yelling at you and when I'm showing my emotions, do you know how unrealistic it is to expect someone to talk nicely when they're trying to explain why they're frustrated and upset especially when they have to deal with your random comments in between? You called me a child yet as soon as you feel like someone is yelling or 'attacking' you you purposely shut off your brain and don't even listen?? How the fuck is that not exactly like a child? It's not my fault that you assume it's directed at you and you somehow let it piss you off because you 'don't like being disrespected', the fact that you turn someone expressing how they feel to you into making it seem like you're being purposely disrespected is quite selfish and I really don't understand how you can literally have NO empathy or understanding for somebody else. I know you're not emotional but for someone to get annoyed just because someone else is being emotional is honestly weird and shows you have no social conscience or true concern for anyone's feelings besides your own. You asked me to express my feelings to you but when I don't do it in the EXACT particular way you like it, you don't want to listen and you get annoyed. I'm sorry but what the fuck. If I'm feeling shit enough to be crying and all that shit do you really think I'm going to be able to control something as bullshit and unimportant as the tone of my fucking voice when I can't even control the tears coming out of my eyes or control my feelings that's making me like this in the first place? You say you care but it seems like you don't care enough to listen to me despite if my 'voice shows a bad attitude' or not. You constantly say you're such a good roommate whenever you're doing these things you say you do to 'make me feel better' so I don't know if this is because you really care or because you just don't want yourself to feel like you're a bad person for letting me be upset without at least making some 'attempt' to make me feel better. You don't have to act like I'm some charity case every time and make me feel like some kind of freak that needs taking care of. You don't have to act so gassed as if you're doing some amazing global charity work or some shit just because you invited me to sleep next to you (then ignore me after that) as if that's actually going to make me feel any better..do you really think just being next to your body is actually going to do anything? Am I supposed to be overjoyed and so happy because wow I get to lie down on the opposite side of the bed of king edward I feel so much better now! all my problems have suddenly disappeared!!! And then when I do speak properly you brush it off and say 'okay enough' like you can't be fucked anymore???? What the fuck do you want? You ask me to talk properly then when I do you don't even want to listen anymore? It's like one massive fuck you to me and my feelings so don't bother telling me you care when your actions prove otherwise. You've never felt this way so how can you judge me and call me a baby and be so fucking harsh to tell me to shut up and stop crying when you don't even know how much frustration and pain is built up in my body it feels like my whole body is fucking squeezing itself and it's about to explode. And you just make it worse by saying stupid shit like that. And also how dare you tell me that I need to change my attitude etc when you clearly have no intention of changing any of your problems at all. Good job trying to tell me what's wrong with me and tell me that my attitude is wrong when I already fucking know it and try to change it yet you clearly don't even try to do anything about any of your ridiculous sociopathic personality flaws. Don't fucking expect someone to change themselves when you don't even have any intention on making yourself better because you're clearly so far up you own ass and act like you're some fucking top shit. I wish I didn't love you so I could stop being disappointed when you don't make me feel better, even though I know I should expect nothing from you. I wish it would hurt less when you act like you don't give a fuck. I wish you remembered the shit I tell you and I wish you would actually do shit when I KNOW that you know it, but you just choose not to do anything and choose to act dumb about it. I wish I didn't love you so it wouldn't hurt every time you did that. I wish I didn't give a fuck about you, I wish it wasn't true that I care so much about you that I'd try anything in the world that I could possibly do to make you feel better if you ever came to me feeling as shit as I do when I come to you. I wish I didn't make such a big deal out of things and pushed you away. I wish didn't have such a huge fear of losing you especially due to these things that get blown out of proportion or that I can't control sometimes. I wish I never fell for some kid that can't even empathise properly and has no emotional and social conscience whatsoever. I wish my love and my care wasn't wasted on someone who's too scared to even love me back. I wish I didn't care about how you feel about me. I wish I didn't secretly hate myself for loving someone that doesn't even want to be with me. I wish I was patient (or stupid) enough to 'wait' without questioning or worrying that it would never actually happen. I wish I didn't care about whether it happens or not. I wish people would stop asking about you. I wish I didn't have to keep lying to them. I wish that having you read this would make a difference. I wish I didn't care if it did or not. I wish that I didn't have hope that it will. And I wish that I didn't know that deep down, it won't.

There are some things that will always be consistent through-out Zelda’s many verses, including...
Is part of the Triforce Religion but struggles to spiritually connect with Hylia, which greatly concerns her family for various reasons.
Born as a Royal or daughter of a high-standing political family, in which she struggles to gain approval for her efforts. Her mother died when she was 6-years-old, leaving behind only Zelda and her father.
Is a citizen of Hyrule, even if she’s currently living in another country. Her formal speech is partly due to Hyrule dialect and partly due to speaking a foreign language.
Has two knights/guards (prior to or in lieu of Link) named Braxton and Niram.
Is researching for some lofty goal and for the enjoyment of learning.
Active in local/global charity work.
Enjoys sewing, needlework, poetry, and gardening.
Has an extreme inability to cook for herself, as she’s always had someone else to do it for her.
Is the unfortunate object of desire of a Duke/politician’s son named Renfry, who tries to force his affections on her and is baffled by her refusal to date him.

Magic of science
|| AU Introduction ||
As the craft of alchemy requires a full understanding of chemistry, physics and ancient alchemical theory, alchemists are closer to scientists than magicians.
This AU takes place within the Fullmetal Alchemist universe. In this verse, Zelda is 25 to account for her political involvement in a more modern universe. She is the Princess of Hyrule, a modest country that has remained somewhat disconnected from the outside world due to its neutral political stance and strict trading laws. Its varied climate has allowed it to be one of the few countries which is almost entirely self-reliant. The Sheikah Technology and the science behind it, developed in honor of Hylia and advanced for the era, is one of the country's closet guarded secrets.
Hyrule citizens as a whole believe in the Triforce religion, which states that the world was created by the three Golden Goddess, Din, Nayru, and Farore. The Goddesses saw fit to bless the land of Hyrule and tasked the Goddess Hylia with its protection. To keep Hyrule from evil, the Goddess Hylia renounced Her divinity and transferred her soul to the body of a mortal whose bloodline is believed to be carried on through the country’s nobility, specifically females.
This religion is considered fairly small and does not have much presence outside of Hyrule. However, those who followed the Triforce are very dedicated and attribute a portion of alchemy to The Goddesses blessing. As the Chosen Blessed, Hyrule feels it has a responsibility to aid the outside world whenever is truly necessary.
Due to this, the royal family is tasked with finding and protecting the Philosopher's Stone so that it can not be used for less-than-noble intentions. Currently, this generational mission is led by Princess Zelda, who has studied the necessary components for alchemy yet has not been able to perform it. She is uncertain why, as her understanding of chemistry, physics, and ancient alchemical theories have all been proven more than sufficient by various tests. Zelda often prays to the Goddess Hylia for help in this, but has yet to receive results.
Her people are not very pleased that she lacks the ability to perform alchemy, as this is seen as a rejection from the Goddess Hylia. The royal family has always been said to have a very close relationship with the Goddess, even being able to hear her, have prophetic dreams, and produce alchemy unlike anything else. Zelda has been able to do none of this. One of her deepest secrets is that she wonders if her ancestors lied about some of their abilities.
The outside world is a bit mocking in regards to the Triforce religion, in part because they know very little about it and because it seems bit archaic (which is ironic because Hyrule is more advanced than any other country). Many of Zelda’s public interviews jab a bit at their religious beliefs, but she’s learned to handle it very professionally.
She has dedicated herself to the further study of ancient alchemical theory and could be considered one of the worlds youngest scholars on the subject. Her other duties include public interviews, mediating negotiations between countries for trading purposes as a neutral third-party, and global charity work.
but the ability to perform alchemy is also tied to an inherent talent for manipulating matter and energy. Not all can become competent alchemists merely by studying.
