So I have a new ques in my mind. What was the language what dwapara yugis used? It was about for 5000 B.C. According to some researches Vedic languages might have come before mahabharat. So did they used Vedic language or what? Because they have NO POSSIBILITIES AT ALL they could have used shuddh Hindi we say today. And Sanskrit, in which it was inscripted were also used by high cast priest and writers only. It was not used among masses. So what was the language used actually?

Can you tell you why you think so? Why do you think Samskritam was limited to certain people? (I hope you did not come to this conclusion based on the Bollywood horror Mohenjo Daro

So did they used Vedic language or what?

Vedic language is Samskritam only.

Anyway, to answer your question, Samskritam was the language spoken across the length and breadth of the society.
