It is likely that some Senecas learned to speak the languages of the other Iroquois groups (Onondaga, Oneida, Mohawk) in order to act as interpreters, otherwise a form of sign language must have been used.

Did the mingo tribes disappear?

The Mingo were already a combination of the remnants of several small Iroquois tribes unconnected with the Iroquois league. In about 1800 they were joined by some displaced Senecas and Cayugas and eventually moved from their homes in Ohio and Pennsylvania to Oklahoma, where their descendants still live today. They were called "Senecas of Sandusky" from the early 1800s, making it seem that the Mingo (or Minqua) had disappeared.
