Basically what i am asking is how were people suddenly able to understand each other and form words for things? Also how did they then take those words and create letters and writing in a way that other people could understand?
Another question I have is when did languages actually develop and how do we even know?

The story I heard about the origin of written language in a history class was that in Babylon, there was a storehouse keeper.
His job was to keep track of stuff in the store room, and he eventually found it easier to use symbols to denote what stuff was in there and just keep a running talley of when stuff was added and when stuff was taken out, then just do an audit to make sure the numbers were right
