Russell Peters is fantastic at this in his comedy routines. He'll make a joke about some culture and pretend to speak their language, but it'll actually all be gibberish. My friend's family has a Hong Kong background. Friend was watching a Russell Peters show one day and the guy was making jokes about what he experienced in Hong Kong. Friend's mother walked by as Peters said something in his made-up Cantonese. She looked at the TV confused because it sounded like Cantonese, but she didn't understand any of it. Then she laughed. :)
