The language used in manga often does not follow standard patterns. Is there a
term for this? Thank you.

question
meaning words
Is there a term for "manga language"?
I don't know if there is a term for this but you can use タメ語 although its
scope is much broader than just patterns you find in manga. Actually it's more
about everything that is not considered as polite.

If you want to play it safe (ie. be sure to be understood) and not use a one-
word expression, you can also use 漫画の言葉, 漫画に出てくる言葉 or 漫画の言葉遣い.

漫画のセリフ would be natural when you mention one specific reference among many of
them. Because not all the manga scripts are eccentric. Some are not following
the standard by the purposes, such as character making and taste or
constructions of the story.

Term is translated into 用語

It's useful for the most of cases, e.g. アニメ用語 (Terms for Anime) 囲碁用語 (Terms
for IGO) ゲーム用語 (Terms for games) コンピューター用語 (Terms for computers)

漫画用語 is not useful most of the time. An older generation merely got it. This
is an exception, it could be gotten the terms used by the manga composers, not
for the language in manga.

My answer would probably disappoint you if you were expecting a short concrete
term as an answer such as 「〇〇[語]{ご}」 or 「〇〇[言葉]{ことば}」. Frankly, I doubt that
such a (short) term exists that would be universally understood.

The kind of language spoken by manga characters vastly differ from one manga
title to the next. Characters speak just like "regular" native speakers from
real life in some manga titles, and characters speak nowhere near like real
people in others. The point is that **among the latter group, a countless
number of speech patterns can be found**.

Thus, I could only come up with "explanatory phrases" rather than common terms
as;

「マンガで（よく）見{み}る / 聞{き}くような言葉 / 言葉[遣]{づか}い / 表現{ひょうげん}」

「マンガ的{てき}な / マンガみたいな / マンガっぽい言葉 / 言葉遣い / 表現」

Any of those word combinations will be understood by native speakers with no
problems.
