I universum:
I filmen var Kanjiklubmedlemmarna verkligen porträtterad av asiater, särskilt indonesier 1 (foto från Star Wars-databas ):

Han opened one eye. Turning, he expected the burst of Guavian fire that had failed to reach him to be replaced by a similar barrage from the Kanjiklub members. Except that another rathtar had appeared behind them and, roaring deafeningly, was busily taking the aliens apart.

Noveliseringen berättar inte vilket språk Kanjiklub-ledaren (Tasu Leech) talar om. det bekräftar bara att han inte gillar Basic och talar ett annat språk (vilket Han också talar):
Han knew perfectly well that Tasu Leech would never deign to speak Basic, so he was not surprised when the man replied in another language - one with which Han was, fortunately, familiar.

Star Wars Databas ger credence till kraven i tidigare svar som Kanjiklubbersna kanske har talat Huttese.
Star Wars-databasinmatning på Kanjiklub :
An Outer Rim criminal organization, Kanjiklub is a rival of the Guavian Death Gang. But while the Guavians are cold and technologically adept, the Kanjiklubbers are street fighters, brawling with improvised tactics and wielding a hodgepodge of blasters, knives and clubs. The group’s wild style reflects their origins as renegade slaves of the Hutts. Kanjiklub has momentarily put aside its dispute with the Guavians to settle scores with a mutual enemy – the Corellian smuggler Han Solo.
Star Wars-databasinmatning på Tasu Leech :
The leader of the Kanjiklub, Tasu Leech is a brutal street fighter. Leech grew up on the Hutt colony world of Nar Kanji and refuses to speak Basic, dismissing it as a “soft language for soft people” and preferring to let his Huttsplitter blaster rifle do the talking. Leech and his fighters confront Han Solo aboard his bulk freighter, angry that the Corellian has twice failed to deliver promised cargo.
Star Wars: Force Awakens - den visuella ordlistan nämner inte språket som talas av Kanjikluben, bara echoing databasens kommentar att Leech ansåg Basic ett "soft language for soft people".
Utanför universum:
Språket är uppenbarligen en pastiche av bitar som lånas från indonesiska, sundanesiska (språket som talas av skådespelarna, vilket är vanligt i väst Java) och andra asiatiska språk, liksom några nya fonem som är avsedda att låta vagt asiatiska . Resultatet, som talas av Leech onscreen, har ännu inte fått namnet:
After being sent the relevant portion of the closely guarded script, she set about creating the alien versions of the Kanjiklubbers’ lines. Because the actors were from Indonesia, Ms. Forsberg said that she was encouraged to base her linguistic concoction on the sounds of the national language, Indonesian, as well as of the actors’ native language of Sundanese, spoken in western Java. She studied clips of those and other Asian languages to come up with something suitably exotic-sounding. Ms. Forsberg said that she sought to create alien words that would “sound credible” and “not like gibberish.”
Reached by email in Jakarta, Mr. Ruhian [who plays Tasu Leech] said that he appreciated Ms. Forsberg’s choice of sources. He received sound files of Ms. Forsberg’s creations and worked with a dialect coach on set to get the pronunciation right. Though not all of his lines survived the final edit, his character Tasu does tell Han Solo “Wrong again, Solo. It’s over for you,” and “Nowhere left to hide,” according to the English subtitles.
The as-yet-unnamed language of the Kanjiklubbers follows in the path of other alien tongues in the “Star Wars” franchise. In the original trilogy, sound designer Ben Burtt fashioned lines for the bounty hunter Greedo from the South American language Quechua, and he used bits of the Tanzanian language Haya for Lando Calrissian’s diminutive co-pilot Nien Nunb.

1 Skådespelaren som spelar Tasu Leech, Yayan Ruhian, kommer från Indonesien . Det verkar som skådespelare som visar resten av gänget också hyllat från Indonesien .
