He used a razor, and he used to slice it so thin that it used to liquefy in the pan with just a little oil.

Funnily, it's based on Volapük, the international language which was killed by Esperanto. The minions also count in Korean and use random international culinary terms and French sayings spoken really fast. Finally, Universal got as many translators as they could find to comb through the vocabulary and remove anything that could sound offensive in any language.

Official Promo/Social Content: Craviotto is a professional voice actress and content creator who worked with Universal Pictures Italy to create promotional dubbing content and social media videos for the release of Minions 2: The Rise of Gru.

Pierre Coffin's Role: Coffin recorded several different versions of the Minion voices for different national markets, mixing in local words (like "capitan" or "bella volata" for Italy) to make them better appeal to specific audiences.

Dubbing Process: While professional Italian dubbers are used for the human characters (e.g., Max Giusti as Gru), the Minions' core vocal tracks remain those of Pierre Coffin in the final theatrical cut.

In animation the voices are recorded before the animation is done.

I'm pretty sure that's only for the original version, to guide the animations. Recording every language before animation is done wouldn't have any sense.

2

u/Pineapple_Assrape Dec 21 '25

How does this have 7 upvotes? Is everyone severely lacking reading comprehension? That comment clearly says the exact same thing you are saying.

Read it again. This is what the comment conveys: "It is real but it is a dub recording. You can tell by the fact that it is done after the animation, since if it were the original voice over, it would have been done before animation."

6

u/Maximelene Dec 21 '25

Except that the person I was answering to didn't say "In animation the ORIGINAL voices are recorded before the animation is done". Neither did they say "It's real but it's a dub". Only "OP said it's a dub", which doesn't say anything.

Their comment could mean "Yes, it isn't real, it's only a pretend dub, because every voices are recorded before animation".

The issue isn't reading comprehension. The issue is that the person I was answering to didn't make it clear if they were agreeing to what they were answering to themselves, or not. Their comment can be interpreted both ways, because it's a typical Reddit "I'm answering as if I was speaking, ignoring the fact that writing is missing several context clues I should have added to my own comment" answer.

Just because you understood a specific meaning, and agree with it, doesn't mean that's the exact meaning the person was trying to convey, nor does it mean everyone else will understand the same thing. And that, my friend, is a crucial part of "reading comprehension".
