If animals had a language we would have discovered it a long time ago and we would have learned to communicate with them. The reason we can't communicate with them is because they are dumb. Some of them might have big brains, but all of them lacks the kind of rational reasoning needed to learn and speak any language at even the level of a toddler.
I mean, you can teach animals words, but you can't teach them how to structure thoughts to create meaningful longer conversations.
