When was the German language first spoken?

All modern languages derive from earlier versions that changed slowly over time from older languages into the forms we know today. It is not possible to identify a specific date upon which any particular language was first spoken. In the case of the German language, the earliest evidence of the use of Old High German as distinct from Old Saxon is found in inscriptions from the 6th century AD and the oldest coherent texts date from the 9th century AD. So the beginning of the use of some form of German as distinct from Saxon can be said to occur sometime in the period from the 6th to the 9th century, or perhaps a bit before that. It may be useful to note that the German spoken in the 10th century would be very different form the German spoken today.
