When was the language Russian founded in Russia?

Answer 1

The Russian language originated from the early Proto-Slavic language, just like all the other Slavic languages (Ukrainian, Polish, Czech, Serbian, Bulgarian and so on), so in a sense they are all "dialects" from that prehistorical language. With time, the "dialects" changed so much that they are now considered different languages.

During history, Russian also borrowed many words from other languages like Greek, German, French, and English. Of course, those languages in turn borrowed from other languages, just like all languages borrow from each other.

Answer 2

Languages aren't 'founded' - Russian developed from Old East Slavic, which evolved from Proto-Slavic, which came from Proto-Indo-European, the mother language of most languages in Europe, the Middle East, and Northern India

Answer 3

What we call "the Russian alphabet" is not orginally Russian. The Russian language uses the Cyrillic alphabet, which is Bulgarian by its origin. Quite similarly, "the English alphabet" is not originally English, but rather Roman.

Cyrillic was first developed in Bulgaria in the 10th century AD. It is named after St. Cyril (one of the two Greek prosphers, St. Cyril and St. Methodius, who invented the first Slavic script).

Nowadays Cyrillic is used as a writing system by some Sothern Slavic (Bulgarian, Serbian, Macedonian) and all Eastern Slavic languages (Russian, Belorussian, Ukrainian). It is also used by some of non-Slavic languages: by Monglolian and by many languages of the former USSR countries.
