Well, the "language field" is just an easy way for the writers to explain
how it was possible for everyone to speak the same language.  As with most
simplified Sci-Fi stories, everyone speaks the same language for the
benefit of the audience, but because there will always be people who want
to get technical, they just put that in there to "ease their minds."

Since 101 *is* written by the creators of the series, I'm not going to
bother trying to come up with a different explanation.  It's just a story,
and somehow aliens and earthlings can communicate without any major
problems, it's not integral to the story, so any other attempted
explanation is moot.  Let's just leave it at that.
