loginTwo thousand years ago, English did not yet exist. Now it is inuse, but some time in the future it will no longer be spoken. Thesame goes for all languages: they appear, they are used for a time,and they disappear. But there are vast differences between them.Some are just used for a few generations while others exist formillennia. Some languages are spoken by only a handful of people, others are used by hundreds of millions.
