I once saw a nature documentary in which a group of roughly a half dozen unrelated species of animals had learned to interpret each others signals of alarm. If that type of interspecies cooperation can develop, I see nothing improbable about primates developing a more and more complex set of signals, causing coevolution of brain structures which lend themselves to such practices.
