Hi kids!. I know you love how Minions speak!. It is so funny!.
There isn't official name for the language. Many from the press call it “Minionese” while there are those who call it the “Banana Language,” apparently in reference to the popular Minions song. This is the song:
The Minions language is difficult to undertand. The talk with some words from the Spanish, French, Italian, Filipino, and other foreign languages.
Many words refer to food. In the Minions song, there’s the banana and potato.
The Minions were also heard saying “poulet tiki masala,” which is the French equivalent for “Indian chicken dish.” Demi-onomatopoeias (the use of words that emulate the sound of the things or events they represent) and intentionally mispronounced English words are also incorporated in the Minions language.
To “analyze” their language, have a look at the following examples of Minion-speak together with their words in English and some notes.
