The Westron language was in fact the "common speech", it was the current language through all the lands of the kings from Arnor to Gondor, and about all the coastsof the Sea from Belfalas to Lune.
The Hobbits used to have their own language, but somehow they forgot a great deal of it, except for some words, like the names of months and days, and a great store of personal names.
