Doesn't have to be _solely_ for machines. Most of the R2 "speech" appears to be whistles. I could see operating on that assumption, which means someone who was (more than I!) adept with generating whistles could potentially "speak" the language. It'd be one of those "easier to comprehend than to speak" kinds of things. :)
