Argalius Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 - the Netherlands settled the area around Hudson and New York Bay - 1664 England conquered the colony New Netherland ( war against the Netherlands) and renamed New Amsterdam in New YorkI'm not sure, but I thought I heard once that The Netherlands traded New Amsterdam (New York) against Suriname, I'm not sure though, but maybe you can find something about it.But very nice document.

DarkAngelBGE Posted June 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Hehe, Argalius. But I more meant proofreading the language instead of the contents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argalius Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Oh lol Is this for a talk or do you have to give this to the teacher, because it isn't a real story it's more like keywords. Anyway, I haven't seen any grammar faults, but as you know I'm not English Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkAngelBGE Posted June 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 It's for a talk. Must be shown to the teacher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argalius Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Ok, then it's good enough. As long as you understand it yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Tutankhamun Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 What are the large arrows for?And the title should be in caps. A general rule is that all of the words except for 'a, the, and' ect are capitalized in a title. America's Early History.Maybe it is just the formatting, but some of your sentances seems to drop off and then continue on the next line. Try backspacing to make each point continue.Good job. Is that for your History class? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkAngelBGE Posted June 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 These are key notes, therefore there are no real sentences, but word groups.It was made by some mates of mine. I just helped them proofreading it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkT Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 As notes, they're fine. There are a few things that aren't, technically speaking, correct English - nothing major - and some other things which are just stylistically strange, but notes don't need to be perfect English and the style you write with is up to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystic-Al-Bob Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 @Desmond: I think it's for our English class where we deal with English and American history. @Timbo: Who will give this talk? According to the topic it's Mike or Bea, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Tutankhamun Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Ahh that's right, you two are in the same class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeru Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 -Christoph ColumbusAFAIK his name in English is "Christopher Columbus"IMHO you should just mind things like capital letters and numbers... Otherwise it's fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clodhopper Posted July 10, 2004 Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 Without looking, I can say that it's already good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
