Discovered? What was it hiding under a rock?

Invented or created is the word you're looking for, and as such have full licence to do to it what they please as it's their language, some guys start speaking it and changing it somewhere else it's a bastardised version, not a perfectly legitimate alternative, and when the guys that bastardised the original turn round and say "that's weird!" No it's not, it's how it's suppsed to be, take your frankenenglish and do one!
