Also, the top right part looks like the character for number five. Since, Chinese has 5 tones it represents the language.

speech radical + mouth radical gives a word “language”. Character 五 represents that you know it excellently (5/5)

It has the speech radical, the number 5, and a mouth and since its meaning is language I think of it as how language needs at least 5 mouths that speak it to be a considered a language.

You can remember this character by the character five being above the mouth and to speech a LANGUAGE you need to use your five scenes including, especially your mouth which leads you to speak. (Also a way to remember the speech radical on the left)
