Why isn't "American" a language?
Why does American English take such liberties with our common tongue? On the other hand,
why has it not taken more liberties? English speakers first started colonising America more
than 400 years ago. Since then, American English has been evolving, influenced by other
languages, culture and technology. As the linguist Max Weinreich said, a language is a dialect
with an army and a navy; the US has been an independent country for more than two
centuries - and boasts the world's inost powerful examples of both. So why is American not a
separate language? Money talks, and the US has not seen it as worthwhile to declare a
distinct language, since American English, like the American dollar, is the current dominant
force globally, like it or not.
