	Dutch-flemish Translation Services
		The ensemble of Dutch dialects spoken in Belgium is often referred to as Flemish (Vlaams in Dutch), although the standard language used in Flanders is the same as in the Netherlands, Dutch.
		Moreover, the official Dutch Language is closer to the southern than to the northern dialects, due to the fact that the Christian Bible (the basis of the official language) was translated mainly by southern immigrants to the North.
		Part of the confusion between "Flemish" and Dutch may stem from the fact that Dutch was banned from official life in Belgium during the 19th century and the early years of the 20th.
