The question is far too vague. What do you mean "understand and use the human language"? for what? Do mean can it respond to and speak human language? yes if its got the proper software that enables it to or are you talking about giving it commands by typing them in human natural language? That would be no because if you're typing a command in "human natural language" (which is what we all do) - automatically the computer translates the command into a binary language which it then processes according to the command its given.

If this is not what you meant then you must be less vague in your questions. Ask the question again and be very clear and specific about what you mean.

In fact, computers can do a reasonable job of understanding spoken and typed language; Microsoft have demonstrated real-time translation of English into Mandarin and Microsoft, Google and Apple all have natural language interpretation systems built into their mobile phone software that works quite well.

no because the computer only read numbers zeroes and 1 to convert it to letters of the language

Why there is a need for converting high level language into machine level language............ why cant we use high level language directly in computers?

Machine code is the native language of the machine. The machine does not "understand" any language other than its own native language. As such, all other languages, including low level assembly languages, must be compiled or interpreted in order to produce the required machine code.
