Sumerian language. Sumerian language, language isolate and the oldest written language in existence. First attested about 3100 bc in southern Mesopotamia, it flourished during the 3rd millennium bc. About 2000 bc, Sumerian was replaced as a spoken language by Semitic Akkadian (Assyro-Babylonian) but continued in written usage almost to the end of the life of the Akkadian language, around the beginning of the Christian era.
Actually the oldest language still spoke in Europe is Basque. While you can hardly find written proof of this, the language is not descended from any of the indo-european invaders which clearly shows that it was spoken in Europe before any modern day language arrived.t is possible that either Chinese or Greek were the first, but Greek has the first written texts, from what archaeology studies have unveiled. Tamil is the oldest language now in use that is spoken by more than 65,000,000 people. please don't compare Tamil with sanskrit ..Tamil is classical language ..
