說 would definitely be better. 說話 is always intransitive (話, which means "speech", acts as the object of 說 "to say").

Here I want to try to provide also a Nivkh translation. The only thing I'm not sure about is the usage of the verb "p'ur-" with the name of a language, maybe there is another more appropriate verb. I'll look up for this!
