Sounds speculative.

Language probably originated in gesturing, as a means to communicate during hunting and such.

Neanderthals were likely just as bright, if not brighter, than humans of 30K+ years ago. I state this based on brain size, which has a relatively strong correspondence with intelligence when primates are compared.

Again, speculation. Besides, if that was the case, language would probably not make use of sound.
