How did the 13 colonies decide on what language would be spoken?

During the time of their independence, the majority of the colonial population had come from Great Britain, whether from Scotland, Ireland, England or Wales. But there were several other languages spoken...Delaware was founded by Sweden, New York was fouded by the dutch, and many spanish speaking Floridians and Louisina/Ohio Valley/Quebec peoples speaking french also lived in the territories of the colonies. However, English was spoken by nearly 85% of all of the American colonists, remember this all occured before the industrial revolution and before the American country attracted unskilled labor forces from other regions because until now the territory was under ENGLISH territorial law so most of those who came in were English and spoke English
