Oh! I think I have something to tell you- [ that seems like a really fair trade. especially for something cute as this owl lantern, oh gosh-
day goes on to explain that he's working on a project to better understand the spirits' language and to widen the range of instruments others can use it with. with the help of others like elle and duster, they were able to figure out spirits can understand any and all musical instruments, not just ocarinas - it's just, um, viewed like accents. the further an instrument deviates from the family of instruments that the ocarinas fall under, the harder it is for the spirits to understand at times.
he also thinks - don't quote him on this, he's still trying to test this on other spirits when he gets the chance in the next few weeks - that the spirits have no need for a proper sentence structure. like, at all. he noticed, over time, how the spirits accepted his translations even when they weren't strung together correctly. it seems long as you get in all the words you want to say to them, the spirits will get the gist of the message. ] -so you could, like, go 'Hi, I'm a friend' or 'Friend hi, I am.' and get away with it with them. It's really strange but it makes the learning curve of spirit language a lot more forgiving.
