Humans didn't exist 2 billion years ago, anatomically modern humans date from about 200,000 years ago at most.

There was no 'first human', species names are imaginary boxes with which abstract ideas are conveyed. If you look beyond everyday conventions you'll see that such imaginary boxes, for all their usefulness, have no hard distinctions between inside and beside.

I doubt there was one first language, more likely different sets of vocalizations that were used in different circumstances.

Hunter/gatherer coordination codes consisting of clicks and whistles that wouldn't disturb game or attract predators as much as proper speech. There are a few African languages that incorporate such sounds.

Familial languages for use in reasonably secure areas that developed from baby talk and twin speak.

None of which would have any modern name.

On the off chance you're some kind of religious type, Aramaic developed from earlier Indo-European languages and is only roughly 3000 years old.

P.S. You have way too many commas in seemingly random places in your last sentence. A comma signifies a slight pause, it looks awkward to have one after a short word like 'if' when it's the first word in a sentence.

There were no humans, or even human-like animals, 2 billion years ago. Modern humans (homo sapiens) appeared on earth between 200,000 and 250,000 years ago.

"No one yet agrees on when language was first used by humans (or their ancestors). Estimates range from about two million (2,000,000) years ago, during the time of Homo habilis, to as recently as forty thousand (40,000) years ago, during the time of Cro-Magnon man." We know that, at least once during human evolution, a system of verbal communication emerged from proto-linguistic or non-linguistic means of communication, but beyond that little can be said. No current human group, anywhere, speaks a "primitive" or rudimentary language. While existing languages differ in the size and subjects covered in their several lexicons, all human languages possess the grammar and syntax needed, and can invent, translate, or borrow the vocabulary needed to express the full range of their speakers' concepts.

Homo sapiens clearly have an inherent capability for language that is not present in any other species known today. Whether other extinct hominid species, such as Neanderthals, possessed such a capacity is not known. The use of language is one of the most conspicuous and diagnostic traits that distinguish H. sapiens from other animals."

For Christian fundamentalists, I suppose the origin could be traced back to Adam: "One of the earliest accounts of the origin of languages is in the Hebrew Bible, in the book of Genesis (dated to the early 1st millennium BC). Genesis 2:19-20 has God giving Adam the task of assigning names to all the animals and plants he had in Eden (see nomothete)."

I'm intrgued by your phrase "1st landed human on...earth" -- are you positing that humans arrived via extraterrestrial means rather than evolving on this planet? Are you a proponent of the alien "seeding" theory?

If you pick any random person (living today - on earth) and traced that persons DNA back to the very beginning -- it traces back to a tribe in Africa that is so old they were around BEFORE language was invented - they spoke with a "click".

I'm sure you have seen documentaries or heard about an African Tribe that spoke "click" (not sure what the real thing is called) anyway that was the first language and we are all related to them.

We weren't here yet two billion years ago. Even the dinosaurs hadn't made it on the scene yet. The Earth formed 4.5 billion years ago, and was a molten rock for a long time after that. I doubt if we were more than single-cell organisms in the ocean, if that, two billion years ago.

-non secular books, fantastically the Bible and the Qur'an, are probably the most-printed books, even if that's style of not achievable to discover strong sales figures for them. Print figures are lacking or unreliable on account that those books are produced by using many diverse and unrelated publishers. besides, many copies of the Bible and the Qur'an are printed and given away free, truly of being offered.- Your declare, being unverifiable, is for this reason disregarded. It extra fails, with the aid of being a Fallacy of Argumentum ad populum. 0-2.

None. there weren't any humans 2 billion years ago. The first form of communication probably wasn't verbal anyways.

as there were no humans 2 billion years ago, there was no language
