[Cronos]

Those languages were Patois of several sources

In Europe,you may recall that the Roman Empire stretched from what is now Britain to what is now Iraq. The common language was Latin. This Empire, in the form of it's polity existed from 300 BC until 450 AD in the West and until 1453 AD in the East. It's institutions survive until this day. The language spoken by the common man in Western Europe, in the lands that were formerly Empire, WAS Latin. There is so much historical proof for that it's hard to refute.

Latin was the spoken, and ONLY Written language in the West, just as Greek was for the East, just as ARamaic was in Judea at the time of Christ.

The Church spoke Latin for the same reason it speaks English now, it is the language of the people.
