Was the English language Created, or, Evolved???

way of putting it, since languages are only what people speak,
and don't so much 'evolve' as 'are changed').

Nostratic to Indo-European to Germanic to Anglo-Saxon to
English.  English includes Southern English, Indian English,
Wessex, and Scots.  Some have [r], some have a retroflex
continuant, some have length in the place of *r.  Some have a
viable subjunctive, some lack robust number/person agreement
on verbs.  English is a mix of hundreds of dialects.

Literary (or standard) languages are largely created, with a
norm typically imposed by educated elites.  With English, the
standard was based on London English, with a few imported
features (like the borrowed word 'they', and verbs ending in
-s).  Why?  Because of printing: they needed to sell their
books, London was the biggest market, but not the only market.
 It was also the center of government, and a large city.  But
English is flexible, the lexical and grammatical base dictated
by market forces and popular opinion, and it's continued to be
so.  It makes the written language sort of a
middle-of-the-road dialect; London was a good choice of
dialect base.

The language has continued to change, unsupervised by all but
the occasional purist and wannabe planner, with local and
regional variants developing their own standard forms.  The
American standard is based on the Midlands dialect, minus some
of its dialectal features; it used to be called "NBC
English", half jokingly, and is the language of media;
some older 'educated' and 'prestige' features didn't maintain
their status.  Few speak standard English as their native
language; many, but not most, speak something close to it.
