An adjective, Jewish, refers to something related to Judaism. It can refer to someone who is a Jew by birth, practice or self-identification. It can also be used to describe a thing associated with Judaism, such as a Jewish holiday. The English word is always capitalized because it is based on a proper noun (Jew).
Jewish is not a language. Someone who talks about "speaking Jewish" may be referring to Yiddish. (It's possible that the reference is to Hebrew or a few other languages -- usually a blend of a local language and Hebrew.)
