What was the language of Eden?

I've seen a 'family tree' of all Earth languages, originating in an 'Indo-European Mother Language' (very fascinating to see how all our languages evolved). I'm curious though as to what people believe the famed and/or fabled Adam and Eve not only spoke, but used to utter names to created species.

Update:

Thanks everyone for taking a moment to answer. OK, some of them were kind of not worth the effort, ahem, but there were some laughs anyway. Besides, it's not really a question we can answer with any credibility. I was just curious on what people thought.

    If Adam and Eve were first humans, they didn't speak anything. Just like other animals.

    Obviously it was English but not American English (except in Hollywood).

    It was most likely something that we would call Proto-Hebrew.

    They really only needed a few phrases:

    "I am naked but I am not ashamed."

    "God said not to eat from this tree."

    "No, actually you will become smart if you do eat from this tree."

    "You can trust me, for I am a talking snake."
