Is Link canonically mute?

No, Link is not canonically mute; he can speak, but his dialogue is usually implied or chosen by the player for immersion, though recent games like Echoes of Wisdom give a specific lore reason: a traumatic experience in a rift stole his voice, explaining his selective silence and occasional grunts. Nintendo intends for players to project themselves onto Link, making him a relatable avatar, hence the lack of voice acting and showing his speech through others' reactions or dialogue options.
