There's no real agreement on this as many languages claim to be the oldest. Greek and Chinese were first written around 1500BC and are among the claimants but modern Chinese and Greeks would hardly understand a word of the original languages.

Answer:The following answers are incorrect. The oldest spoken language we can attempt to reconstruct is a theoretical language called Proto-Human or Proto-World. The answers below have some good suppositions, and a few good facts, but they don't go far enough back in the linguistic family tree.Answer:Sanskrit, like its relatives Latin and Ancient Greek, survives in ancient texts that can be taught and read but does not survive as a spoken language used in the normal course of living by an identifiable population.While the earliest spoken language used by humans was probably a very sophisticated system of grunts, that language does not survive in any form.The earliest written languages were Semitic languages.The oldest attested Semitic written language was Akkadian which was spoken and written in Mesopotamia as early as 3000 BC but does not survive as a spoken language today. Hebrew and Arabic are Semitic languages that are spoken today and may be among those that can lay claim to being among the oldest languages spoken today. However, as with all languages, they evolve with time. Modern Hebrew and modern Arabic, while stabilized by association with religious texts, probably differ notably from the forms spoken prior to the settling of those texts.Chinese may also have a claim to being among the oldest spoken languages.However, since all modern spoken languages are about equally sophisticated in terms of structure and capabilities, one could argue that they are all of about the same age, that all have evolved from other languages no longer spoken to the level that they are found today.....Oldest spoke language has to be in Africa,since modern humans came from the,I would have thought this to be obviousLike its relatives, Latin and Ancient Greek, Sanskrit survives in ancient writing that can be taught and read but does not survive as a spoken language used today by any identifiable population. While the earliest spoken language used by humans was very likely a refined series of grunts, that language does not survuve in any way, shape, or form.The earliest written languages were the Semitic languages. The oldest confirmed Semitic language was Akkadian, which was spoken and written in Mesopotamia as early as 3000 BC, but does not survive as a spoken language today. Hebrew and Arabic , while stabilized by association with religious texts, probably differ with time.
