This resolution declared the United States independent from Great Britain rule. But in order to make the decision legal, they needed the Declaration of Independence, a document which had been prepared by Thomas Jefferson and a Committee of Five. Congress debated for two days and approved it on 4th of July, which was to become the American Independence Day.

I am learning Dutch, but wish you had Flemish, which is slightly different. Also wish I could set the language I speak to be American English. Today had to connect the Dutch word to the English word lorry and I was not sure what a lorry was……(a truck). However I am loving this and have been able to say a few sentences that my Belgian husband actually understood. Thanks!!!!
