New evidence shows that Elamite was continuously in use from proto-elamite 3200 BC to Linear Elamite 1850 BC, until it was fully replaced with the cuneiform representation of elamite and finally disappeared around 300BC. It developed as a sister system with the Sumerian language from a common ancestry of counting tablets with select logograms.
The Elamite language is still not fully deciphered, but some words indicate the presence of wanderwords:

Arabic sources as late as the 10th century AD reference an "incomprehensible" language in Elam dubbed Khลซzฤซ @ Khuzestan ุฎูุฒุณุชุงู > Susiana chuzianโchuzistan?
Every author of the early Islamic period, whether Arabic, Persian, or African, referred to the entire region as Ahvaz.
Some scholars believe Ahvaz and Khuzestan are related to the name Ooksin, a city established during the era of the Elamite civilization, and are the altered forms of the words Ooks, Ookz, Hookz, Huz and Khuz.
Iraj Afshar in his Nigฤhฤซ bih Khลซzistฤn : majmลซahยดฤซ az awzฤ-i tฤrฤซkhฤซ, jughrฤfiyฤ'ฤซ, ijtimฤ`i, iqtisฤdฤซ-i mintaqah[3] states that Uxi was the Greek counterpart of the Elamite word Hobuj > สฐลชvja โ Middle Persian Hลซzฤซg, Arabic al-Xลซzฤซya

Ibn Nadeem, in his book al-Fihrist (ุงูููุฑุณุช), mentions that all the Median and Persian lands of antiquity spoke one language.[citation needed] In his book he quotes the Abdullah Ibn al-Muqaffa: "The Iranian languages are Persian(Fars), Fahlavi(Pahlavi), Dari, Khuzi, and Suryani(Syrian)."
The entire province was still known as "the Khudhi" or "the Khuji" until the reign of the Safavid king Tahmasp I
