Language is a skill that must be learned. At birth, babies have neither the mental development for language, nor have they experienced it. As they age they will hear those around them speaking (if they can hear) and will learn to associate the sounds with the concepts and objects they represent. At the same time they will experiment with making sounds until they can duplicate the ones they hear. This process slowly becomes language.
