How is the language older in the earth?

Are you asking 'Which language on earth is the oldest'?

If so, you'll get varied answers.

If you want to know what I think, I'll tell you privately.

Linguistically it is considered to be proto indo-european

The oldest written proof still readable is the Rosetta stone, which contains the same piece written in three languages:

Egipcio Jeroglífico
Egipcio Demótico
Griego Clásico

Ok, I will check my inbox.

GreeK (Ancient) is certainly one of the oldest languages ...but not the only one

It's hard to say which language is the oldest, like already mentioned, but if you look at the oldest and first written accounts of languages, Sumerian is the oldest. Other languages which are considered old, like Greek, first appeared almost two thousand years later.

Of course languages was spoken before they were written, but as we have no accounts of them, it is impossible to say, at least at the moment. But a language like Proto-Afro-Asiatic (which evolved into the Afro-Asiatic family) is believed to be up to 10-12000 years old, while Proto-Indo-European (which evolved into the Indo-European family) only is up to 4-6000 years old.
