Kurdish language is a group of many different languages that are spoken predominantly in the Middle East. It is a language mostly spoken in an area called Kurdistan, including by Kurdish people in parts of the countries Iran, Iraq, Syria and Turkey.
The first known Kurdish speaking ruler was Saladin and he ruled over Egypt and Syria. It is this ruler that is credited for starting the Ayyubid Dynasty. The Kurdish language has even been regarded as having official language status in Iraq.
The best guess on the Kurdish language is that it came from ancient times. The exact history of this language is not completely known, but it has lasted for many years and is still spoken today.
