Babies building language

The five universal sounds of babies building language-

NEH - HUNGER

OWH - SLEEPY

HEH - DISCOMFORT

EAIR - GASSY

EH - BURP



Babies need connection to build a new language relying on eye contact and physical contact to start to translate the words spoken to them, which means that to build my new language, it needs to happen with people, I can't build a language to communicate with others unless there are others there. These babies build meaning into these sounds, but I wonder how much of the meaning comes from their body language, being opposite each other, having eye contact, using hand gestures?
