Jedi aren't the only ones who can understand droids, anyone can. Same reason why Han can understand Chewie, they speak a language that anyone can learn.

Why do some characters understand each others species'language but don't speak back to them in it?This has a simple out-of-universe answer. They need the audience to understand the conversation. In-universe, some languages are difficult to impossible for other species to speak (Wookie, Hutt, Selkath (when that was a thing, lol)) so I'm guessing it's just standard procedure. --- 53 LIII 0b110101 p16 0x35 ...
