This might be a dumb question but i’ve always wondered since they had never encountered people who spoke a completely new language they’d never heard, how did they communicate?

As other comments have said Christopher Columbus didn’t do this but a similar question could be how did the Pilgrim fathers communicate to the native Americans? The answer is that they spoke English. It turned out that at least one of the Indians had been to Europe and spoke both English and Spanish. This fact entirely changes my perspective of the relationship between the pilgrim fathers and the “savages.”
