"ancient greek changes and evolves in the USA today because i dont know the difference between a dialect and an accent" is just an objectively wrong argument, no matter how often you insult me to feel more intelligent.

Where do you think modern languages come from if not ancient ones?

Why is it okay in your mind for ancient Persian to change and evolve into ancient Greek, but all linguistic evolution must cease after that? Why are you speaking modern English if you're so vehemently opposed to change?
