Imam Mohammed (raa) said, "But G’d created them human and G’d put them in and made it possible for them to be in that area, that geography, that part of the map, G’d did that and G’d created the environment; the natural environment there that affected their physical development, their spiritual development, their human development, their social development, their total development, their language, G’d did that , G’d says, "He is the One Who gave you your languages." (Q. 30.22).  This is what He says to us in the Holy Book.

Oh no man taught himself the language! How?  Language, the origin of language, is a mystery!  It is.  It's a mystery how it developed, you know.  It must have started like ba ba ho ho, but (then) the intellect developed and man was able to use his intellect that G’d made; the master computer; the human mind that G’d made.  He was able to use it and he was able to come up with communication for him and his people in his family or in his environment, a common language.  I’m sure nature played a great role just nature itself not the brain so much but nature itself played a great role in bringing people to form some kind of language for communicating between one another."
