However, we do know a lot about languages, the language of today and also the languages of earlier times. There are probably about 3000 languages in the world today. Chinese is the lang uage with the most speakers. English, Russian and Spanish are also spoken by millions of people.

Languages are always changing. The English of tod ay is very different from the English of 500 years ago. In time, some even die out completely. About 1,000 years ago, English was a little known relative of German spoken on one of the borders of Europe.
