The correct answer is B. False
Step-by-step explanation:
William Shakespeare was a prominent writer during the 16th and 17th centuries; in his works that included mainly play and poems, Shakespeare used many words that were common during that era along with words he invented. Due to this, the use of language in Shakespeare's works differs greatly from Standard English today. This occurs not only because language evolves over time but also because many words Shakespeare used were exclusive from literature or were his inventions. Thus, it is false the works of Shakespeare would be considered Standard English today.
