Namaste everyone
The oldest languages as heard in animation films around the world - as a huge language & animation film enthusiast, I cannot be happier to present this one to y'all.
Animation films have long been based on different cultures and traditions around the world, and so, they are often one of the best ways to pass on a language to kids. While most of the languages in this video are obsolete today, they still carry a figment of a rich culture and civilization within each of them, and so it is truly a delight to hear Old Norse in Frozen or Biblical Hebrew in the Prince of Egypt.
Following languages are featured in the video: -
Old Thai
Gaelic
Basque
Old Norse
Middle Tamil (sorry, the video wrongly mentions it as 'Old Tamil')
Classical Arabic
Eclesiastical Latin
Classical Sanskrit
Classical Chinese
Biblical Hebrew
Regarding the dates - it will be controversial, I know that already. However, I tried my level-best to ensure I quote and use only those sources and claims of WRITTEN ATTESTATION that are largely undisputed and crystal-clear in their identification of a language - be it an inscription or a carving or anything else - is used by me here. But feel free to supplement my knowledge with older undisputed written attestations of any language in this list.
Also let me know if I missed out any animation film and old language in this video!
Hope you enjoy going through this little time-travel ride across beautiful animation and historical languages around the world!
