This is a very complex question for many reasons:
Do you include dialects\
Do you include dead languages\
What about tribal languages\
Sign languages\
There are so many factors it is almost impossible to answer.
My grandfather has a copy of the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica and it says, for example, "a figure of about 1,000 is implied".
Over the 20th Century, that figure has crept up slowly and now according to Ethnologue there is a figure of 6,912 livinglanguages in the world.
To me, that seems a little too accurate, but every man has their own mind to think with so ...
This figure obviously doesn't include tribal languages that has not been found yet, but it does include tribal languages. (If they've not been found, it would be extremely difficult for them to be included, because you see documentaries on TV that in the wildernesses of Africa, new tribes are being found. "Forgotten People...".
Anyway, the overall answer appears to be 6,912 living languages.
