Pierre Coffin, director of Minions series, once said this in the film introduction of 20 13.
[pierre coffin:] ... I let them speak Hindi, French, English, Spanish and Italian. I mix all these words that sound ridiculous just because they sound good, not because they must mean something.
Pierre Covent: "I made them speak Hindi, French, English, Spanish and Italian. I mix these interesting words together just because they sound interesting, not because they must mean something. "
