'A' or 'a' meaning one is not the first word invented as it is a grammatical construction.
Nouns would very likely be first words, They can be used by themselves, such as "Tarzan" (not "me Tarzan") Jane, rock, tree, Mum etc

Oldest known word in the English language?
Modern English is made up of words with origins in Latin, Greek, Old English (Germanic), French, Dutch, modern German and many other sources.The oldest surviving elements in modern English are probably the pre-Roman Celtic British words and place-names, belonging to the Brythonic language. Since there is more than one such word, no individual word can be selected as the "oldest". Examples are Avon, Dover, Britain, Kent, Severn, Thanet, Thames, York, tor, combe.However, the fact is that almost every word in Englishcan be traced back to the Sanskrit language and beyond, since all the languages I mentioned above are Indo-European languages derived from extremely ancient languages in northern India; in that sense all English words have the same age, no matter by what route they came down through history.
