What exactly is Groot saying in his movies? There are only two people that know. James Gunn (Director) and Vin Diesel (voice actor).

Diesel is noted for his distinctive deep voice. He said his voice broke around age 15, giving him a mature-sounding voice on the telephone, which he often uses for his acting performances.
Marvel and Disney had to fork out a pretty penny for Vin Diesel, who spent plenty of time recording but only said three words. “While his lines only consisted of "I am Groot", Vin was still paid out a whopping $54 million, which comes up to a $13 million paycheck for each film he voiced Groot for.”

They can't be heard since Groot only says, "I am Groot," which is how the director was able to get away with so many uses of the F-word without the movie being rated R.
Towards the end of the Marvel Cinematic Universe sequel, Groot says, “I love you guys” — a departure from his usual dialogue of “I am Groot.” James Gunn has confirmed that this isn't actually Groot vocalizing the words “I love you guys,” but rather, the moment signifies that the audience has spent enough time with the ...
Unfortunately, as tree people, flora colossi possess wooden larynxes that make speaking very difficult. The only words they can manage are "I am Groot." (The MCU's Groot's use of "we are" during his sacrifice was apparently not a light undertaking.)

Groot is a Flora colossus from Planet X, the capital of the branch worlds. The Flora colossi are tree-like beings whose language is almost impossible to understand due to the stiffness of their larynxes, causing their speech to sound like they are repeating the phrase "I am Groot".
Hailing from the Branch Worlds' Planet X, Groot is part of a species called Groot, so his name is also the title of his taxonomic classification. From the time he was a sapling, Groot was destined to protect the rights of the downtrodden.
