Well, that depends on how one defines language.

Puzzle: No doubt the India Plate broke off from Africa and Madagascar and eventually smashed into South Asia absorbing some islands on the way. The geology and minerology of the India Plate is radically different than the Eurasian Plate but similar to Africa and Madagascar--but when did they collide? Also radically different is the ethnicity and the cultural differences between the people of India and South Asia to this day. It appears to me that the people of India did not migrate there but where migrated there through plate tectonics.
Now, if I establish that a man is man only because of the ability of complex language. Then man, with the ability of complex language, according to most, is about 50,000yrs old.
Therefore, the people of the India Plate, who went for a ride, and the people of the Eurasian plate, both must of had the ability of complex language at the time the plates collided making it much later than the 40M years ago that current geologic studies suggest.
I think you should know by now that the only feasible way for you to not say anything monumentally ignorant is to not say anything at all.
Btw, the people on east coast of North America tend to be culturally and linguistically similar to those on the other side of North America, and they even remember being on the other side of Atlantic as little as a few hundred years ago. So clearly the opening of North Atlantic must have happened within a few hundred years.
