'''Simlish''' is the fictional language used by [[Sim]]s. It is assumed that Simlish is the official language of [[SimNation]].
 
ThereThe voice actors of ''[[The Sims 4]]'' each have their own Simlish dictionaries, so they know all the translations. However, there is no official Simlish dictionary available for the public, but an unofficial dictionary, based on ''[[The Sims 2]]'', can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20120902091323/http://bbs.thesims2.ea.com/community/bbs/messages.php?&openItemID=item.2,item.43,item.61,item.41,item.23&threadID=8d04f2582c30dca38b0a2d07d28fb420&directoryID=2&startRow=1 here].

=== The Sims 4 ===
''The Sims 4'' has a wider variety of Simlish phrases, some of them varying between voice types. "Sul sul" and "Dag dag" remain as the common greetings, and Sims often say "Vadish" when saying thanks. However, Sims may say greetings in a short version, saying the word only once, not repeated once in the sentence. Other common phrases include "Yabahorne", "Awu venae", "Yim bala", "Wibbs", "Muchi pichi", "Deroi" and "Dorishi". Sims who use the Respectful Greeting or demonstrate the [[Proper]] trait, they'll often greet the other with "Wutushu, yimsimsie."
