Jews only started speaking hebrew after world war 1, more or less. It’s not “palestinian narrative”, it’s just facts. And it’s also facts that Jews drove out some arab villages, and bought up some land. Palestinians say that the israelis stole ALL the land, and israelis say that they took ALL of the land peacefully – neither are true. It was both.
The few Jews who lived in eretz yisroel over the years did not speak hebrew, since it wasn’t invented yet. As I said, they spoke either yiddish, arabic, or perhaps ladino/judeo-persian/ etc..
But the majority (by a huge margin) of people living in EY during the ottoman empire were arabs who spoke arabic. Parts of EY were unpopulated or sparsely populated, but they still spoke arabic. When the Israelis took over, large swaths of people still spoke and continue to speak arabic. Being accommodating to them isn’t a problem.
