Common Slavonic
From Academic Kids
Common Slavonic was the common language spoken by the Slavs. In the 10th–12th centuries Common Slavonic eventually broke up into the ancestors of the modern Slavic languages.
The Common Slavic language spoken before the 6th century is reconstructed, as there are no documents written in this language, and called Proto-Slavic.
Old Church Slavonic can be regarded as a literary variant of Common Slavonic.
