Maybe in the most strange way of translating it does, but Dampkring is the dutch word for the earth's atmosphere.

But the words apart from eachother mean 'Vapor' and 'circle'.

I believe Dampkring Coffeeshop itself translates "dampkring" as "smoke ring". The new sign by the entrance of the newest Dampkring Coffeeshop has a smoke ring. The new art work on the side of the Dampkring Coffeeshop has a drawing of 3 smoke rings above a cup of coffee.

That is true, I saw the damprking yesterday and I also saw the smokecircles. But the word dampkring does not litteraly translate into smokecircle.

As I said, damp means vapor and kring means circle. But if you combine the two words into dampkring, it means atmosphere.

I hate my language, it is so irrational and unlogical.

dutch may be bad, but english is worse, there is no rhyme or reason to spelling and usage.

No disrespect my American friend, but that statement is absolute bullshit. The English language is based entirely on reason, spelling and usage ( although I have a very limited grasp of all of these

)

Like I said, no disrespect though.

sorry buddy, but i have to disagree, with words such as "there" "their" and "theyre" along with "your" and "you're" logic does not apply. being that english borrows from so many languages there are certainly more "exceptions" than rules in the english language (I before E except after C). another example is "invalid" (in-VA-lid) meaning deficient in substance or cogency; weak. and "invalid" (IN-va-lid) meaning an infirm or sickly person. where do u see reason there?

I don't see no reason if thats whats being implied, everything you said in that post makes complete sence to me.
And I can't argue about borrowing from other languages, thats fact!
