The Hive seem to primitive/beastly for that, the Vex might be too "synthetic" to imitate language, and the Cabal are just plain beastly, but in a militaristic sense, and seem to mostly just roar.

I think that the Fallen might be interested in cannibalising human technology and culture for anything they can use (tech, knowledge, works of art, etc.)

As for the other species imitating human speech, they might not be able to. Cabal vocal chords might be structured different; the Hive might communicate telepathically, and the Vex might just IM each other.
