The source of language is the need to communicate, but how language came into being is unknowable. It stands to reason that animal cries and other sounds may have evolved into language, but since there are no primitives languages and no "fossil" traces of any, just how that may have happened is obscure.

Language is from a divine source, lets consider Genesis 2:19. Adam was given the mandate to name all the creatures and whatever he called the animals was what that animal was called from thence. So I think that's where language emanated.
I will also talk of Natural sound source though its not a strong point. Primitive humans imitated the cries and sounds they hear from their environment. For example, the cuckooing of the bird family cuculidae. This became the original name of those birds.
