How will language function as a feature?

There’s already two topics about languages in the game:

Language

I thought would be cool if there was a way to create your own alien language in the game and i was wondering what you guys thought. Edit side note i came up with this idea in school and i accidentally dropped my pencil afterwords XD

Languages of the species

I haven’t seen anyone concerned about languages yet. There was a brief discussion on the topic of communication with other species in the space stage, but that’s about it. And even then, the suggestion was just to make the creatures produce random sounds. I’d suggest that the sounds your creature makes are dependent on its biology - do they have teeth? To they have a tongue? Do they even have oral cavity? Or do they use any other means of communication rather than sounds? E.g. movements, smells…
