Modern English (Your so-called 'American'), in addition, came about sometime in the 18th century, almost TWO millenniums after the death of Jesus. It is, therefore:
- Impossible that Jesus spoke English, as English wasn't a thing yet
- Impossible that Jesus spoke in any sort of American tongue, unless you mean a Native American tongue, which I'm quite sure you don't
I also stand by my belief that the words [admitted vulgarities removed] in a vulgar sense.
On a completely different note, where is my insulting forum rank? I want one!

Luke 1:37
For with God nothing shall be impossible.
That verse alone nullifies your ill-informed claim that it would have been impossible for
Jesus to know
American and its less perfect predecessor, English.
Nothing is impossible to God.
Now, many atheists fail to understand that
Jesus = God because of the
Trinity. This is also clearly expressed in His
Magnum Opus.
John 10:30
I and my Father are one.
Because
God and Jesus are the same and nothing is impossible to God,
nothing is impossible to Jesus, either. He can do everything and knows everything.
Revelation 19:6
And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
You also mentioned the
time frame issue. I can assure you that that is
no obstacle to
Jesus.
Psalm 139 provides
irrefutable proof that the omniscient
God (= Jesus) knows all our thoughts and actions
beforehand, including all out utterances (which by definition includes
the language in which they are spoken).
Psalms 139:4
For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether.
Psalms 139:16
Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
An entity (such as
God = Jesus) that knows
absolutely everything, including things that are impossible for mortal men, even
True Christians™, to fathom, such as the simultaneous position and momentum of an electron, can
easily be fluent in languages that have not yet formed, or ones, such as
Elamite, that are already
extinct.
Your hypothesis is thus proven
wrong and it is time you embraced
Jesus and accepted
Him as your
Savior and
Lord!
Yours in Christ,
