American English is just a dialect of British English. The spelling of certain words was changed at the instigation of Noah Webster (eg colour became color, centre became center) Certain words are different, especially for parts of a car (or automobile) eg hood in American English equates to bonnet in British English. There are a few grammatical variations eg Americans say I dowhen they mean I have. Overall the differences in spelling, grammar and pronunciation are less than the differences between the British and Scottish dialects.

What is better Modern day English or Old English of Shakespeare Why?
Technically, there is no "better" version of the language, because language is evolving every day. Modern English is what we speak, but Shakespeare did not actually speak (or write) Old English, he wrote in Early Modern or Elizabethan English. Old English (except for a few often-used words that have survived) would have been unintelligible, as it is a form of early Germanic languages. The grammatical differences between different dialects of the same language do not make one version better than another: "thou art" is no better or worse than "you are" and "you are" is no better or worse than "y'all are". Shakespeare's use of the language is better not because of his grammar but because of his extensive vocabulary, his use of figurative language, and his close attention to rhythm and the sounds of words.

What results when people who speak a given language migrate to a different location and become isolated from other members of their group?
What often happens is they create a new language based on what they remember about the original one, but with new influences from wherever they currently live. Some linguists believe this is how American English diverged from British English. The longer the colonists lived far away from England, they lost touch with the Mother Language and developed their own version of English. Today, while American English is based on the same language that people in England speak, it is very different from British English. American English has its own unique slang; words are often pronounced differently from how the British would pronounce them; and there are different spelling rules (British people spell the word "honour" while Americans spell it "honor," for example). In other words, American English has become its own unique version of English.
