On this day in history (from history.com):

On this day in 1884, the first portion, or fascicle, of the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), considered the most comprehensive and accurate dictionary of the English language, is published. Today, the OED is the definitive authority on the meaning, pronunciation and history of over half a million words, past and present

Sadly this was just over a hundred years after America was invented, so the inhabitants of that country never got to learn how to speak English properly!
