Great but can you use it in a sentence?
Do not you love it when something simple causes confusion because context matters and two different contexts could apply? This extremely specific question is regarding The Legend of Zelda Tears Of The Kingdom a game that was finally announced in full at the Nintendo Direct last Tuesday. For a long time now the title was just known as Breath of the Wild 2 even though Nintendo technically never called it that. The team said the title was a bit of a spoiler and as such they could not reveal it until the time was right. But now that they have there are some people who are a bit confused about what it means and what it could be intended to mean given the games lore.
Confused? Well look at the word tears you can pronounce it two different ways and it means two different things. It can be tears as in tears rolling down your cheek or tears as in can you believe how easily this machine tears up paper? For The Legend of Zelda Tears Of The Kingdom both pronunciations work because it could reference the kingdom itself crying or it could be referencing how the kingdom is torn up in reference to the islands that we have seen floating above the world in multiple trailers including the one we got at the Direct.
So what is the answer? Well Eurogamer actually reached out to Nintendo about this and confirmed that it is the teardrop version which potentially reveals a new element of the story. In the new trailer there was a wall painting that showed a figure being surrounded by seven items that honestly look like tears. The title of the game may be more literal than many expected. Will the Tears of the Kingdom have to be found to both stop evil and bring the realm of Hyrule back together? Its very possible based on all we have seen which is remarkably little given how long we have known about the game. Remember the title was first confirmed all the way back at E3 2019 It was there that we saw the rise of a dark being possibly Ganondorf and the first sign of the islands being torn up from the ground.
