What language did Adam and Eve speak?
It seems rather odd that there was no language barrier between Adam, Eve, or God, doesn't it?
Interesting answers, yet none came close to answer the question logically. How did Adam and Eve KNOW what words to form, since whatever language they stuck with must obviously have been BRAND NEW to BOTH of them, so what language WAS it, really?
"God" might be able to speak all languages, but how does that relate to Adam and Eve? THEY were not gods, they were just supposed to be the first humans, with no special powers themselves. So again I am back to square one asking the same question. It's funny that people have not thought much about this angle in the story of Adam and Eve, and I would have thought that theists had figured this question out LONG ago, right?

Since they didn't exist, they didn't speak any language.

Maybe the language they spoke was limited to the language of instinct, which does allow some communication. There are so many questions. And here's another one: Saint Augustine couldn't do it, but can someone else, believer or nonbeliever, explain what kind of fruit Adam and Eve ate in the story? After 6000+ years I think we are all due an intelligent explanation. No guesses, opinions, or beliefs, please. Just the facts that we know from the story. But first, do an Internet search: First Scandal.

Archaeologists have uncovered languages that are older than Hebrew. working example, the Sumerian written language used photographs for words and sounds. additionally, historical Egyptians used photographs called hieroglyphics (hi-ur-uh-GLIFF-icks) to place in writing words and sounds. Later, different languages (like Hebrew) used an alphabet to place in writing words. The earliest form of Hebrew appeared formerly the time of Moses. So, Hebrew replaced into around whilst Moses wrote the 1st 5 books of the Bible, and it extremely is the language wherein lots of the old testomony replaced into written, in spite of the undeniable fact that a number of it replaced into written in Aramaic (Daniel 2-6, and areas of Ezra 4-7). The alphabet of Aramaic sounds like Hebrew, notwithstanding it has distinctive grammar and spelling. we don't understand what language Adam spoke, yet he replaced into able to call the animals and talk with Eve. So, from the very commencing up, guy replaced into sensible and spoke a language. He wasn't an ignorant caveman who used grunts to chat with others. God Bless You

Why? It doesn't seem odd to me at all. God would be able to speak or understand any language and also make himself understood. Understand?

Scripture does not elaborate. God created A&E to be mature in both body and spirit. They could communicate immediately and were very wise beings.

Ademic. According to Christian mythology, god created a language specifically for him to communicate with them. Known as Ademic language.
look it up.
Edit: It's funny to see all these completely clueless Christians here pulling answers out of their asses.

According to history, they spoke Sumerian. Whether the Sumerian claim is true is unknown.
