One thing I love/hate about Zelda games is that Link is silent. I love the fact that he's silent, I hate the fact that everyone pretends that he isn't.
I agree with this, it's another reason Chrono from Chrono Trigger annoys me.

That's why i brought up the other language idea, it would be a great way to keep him as a silent observer, someone along for the ride and gets mixed up in some big stuff, having to communicate with body language and basic actions (not sign language, more like expressions or stuff like a pat of the shoulder).

That's what I would like seeing in Skyward Sword. That way he's still communicating while never saying anything. It could actually make him way more interesting.

Hell, make him mute and write the script around that.
