Who were the first people to speak German?

German as a language was first noted by the Romans in the 1st century b.c. The early Germanic tribes were in northern Europe which included mostly southern Scandinavia at the time, and many spread south which ultimately lead to an increase geographically in the German language. This dispersion also led to the formation of many other dialects and eventually languages as well. The Germanic tribes in these regions spoke Germanic, with Indo-European roots, and the variations. One of the oldest known languages from German was Gothic where a Bible translation was found in the 4th century. There were many Germanic tribes who spoke variations of Germanic including the Allemanni, Angles, Teutonic, and the Chauci.


Does Christianity speak Germanic?

Christianity does not inherently "speak" any specific language, including Germanic languages; rather, it encompasses a diverse range of languages and cultures. However, the spread of Christianity in Germanic regions led to the use of Germanic languages for religious texts and liturgy, notably seen in translations of the Bible into languages like German. This helped shape the religious and cultural identity of Germanic-speaking peoples. Thus, while Christianity itself is not tied to a single language, it has adapted to and influenced Germanic languages throughout history.
