There's no way of knowing the very first word ever spoken, especially since the language in which it was uttered is now extinct.
Language changes over time. The "first" languages have morphed slowly into today's languages, disappearing on its own. For instance, there is a Proto-Indo-European language, the theoretical mother language of all Indo-European languages (including English, Spanish, German, Sanskrit, etc.). That language no longer exists, but it has grown into many, many new languages. Linguists can try to reconstruct it, but it's impossible to know exactly how the language worked.
There is also no way to know the first woman to conceive, unless you want to believe in a religion which specifies a first woman.
You are asking questions that are impossible to know. Nobody was around in those days, and there are little to no traces of those languages and societies. As such, linguists and historians can do their best to reconstruct all the details, but they will never know for sure. They can also only go back so far-- there is no way for them to go all the way back to the beginning.

First word uttered must have been something like 'ma'. First language must have been a sign language, as philologists would say. To know more about the history of language, please visit this site.http://www.massey.ac.nz/~alock/hbook/hewes.htm

Impossible to find out if species prior to homo sapiens had a language, and if so, how structured it was. We are talking von 5 million years.

Probably some primative form of grunting and/or howling sounds . As far as a formal language, I couldn't tell you.

I think that varying grunts might have qualified as "words" back in the earliest days of linguistics.
