                 The children&#039;s room becomes an oasis of relaxation: The colourful Moki children&#039;s hammock is easy to attach, is made of cuddly organic cotton and comes with a patented safety hook and attachment. 
 Thanks to it&#039;s closed suspension system, the hammock is especially safe for children. 
 The extra padded edges reduce wear and are pleasantly soft. They also make the hammock particularly suitable for therapeutic purposes.

                                            The Camino&#039;s are, as far as we have been able to determine, the first very GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified travel hammocks. This unique hammock is made of pure organic cotton. Incredibly pleasant on the skin and a exceptional lying comfort.

                 After much fiddling and trying out, it is now ready for the world. A traveller hammock, which in terms of weight, can match with those made of synthetic materials. Due to a particularly fine and long-meshed weaving technique, the quality and feel of cotton could be combined with the low weight of synthetic materials . 
 Unpacked and hung up in a few seconds, it is not only a faithful companion for the wide world, also at a lake, at the festival or in your own garden it shines with practicality and beauty. 
 Packed together, it serves as a pillow or seat cushion. 
 The storage bag is sewn to the hammock and offers two storage compartments in the suspended position. A small one for e.g. glasses or smartphone and a large one for your holiday book and a bottle of water. 
 Available in six different colours and all GOTS certified: The organic seal of the globally recognized Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) stands for strict environmental and social criteria throughout the entire processing process. (Certified by CERES,  License No. 0271)

                 abhängen 
   Ab   has two notions that it can add to a verb, s eparation-ness  (we could also call it  off-ness ) and  downward-ness . They can create distinct meanings but in combination with   hängen   (to hang)&amp;nbsp;they kind of blend together.   To hang   has both ideas in it anyway. I mean, hanging from the ceiling means not being directly at the ceiling, so there’s the separation and of course you can&amp;nbsp;only hang downward. Well, okay unless you’re in&amp;nbsp;space. There, you&amp;nbsp;can&amp;nbsp;hang allward. Or was it anyward? Oh boy… I think the bs-express just arrived. I really thought I’d   lost   him. 
 So anyway,   abhängen   looks a lot like to  &amp;nbsp;hang off. &amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;And if you have some experience with German prefix verbs you’ll&amp;nbsp;know that it’s NOT gonna be the translation. The meanings of prefix verbs just aren’t that literal, usually. But   abhängen   actually is&amp;nbsp;the literal translation of an English word:   to depend.&amp;nbsp;    The base&amp;nbsp;of   depend   is&amp;nbsp;the Latin verb   pendere,&amp;nbsp;  which is also the base of&amp;nbsp;words like suspend, appendix or pendulum. And now guess what the verb meant… drumroll… it meant &amp;nbsp;  to hang  . So d  epend   is really the exact same as   abhängen  … p  end   (to hang) combined with&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  de   (idea of separation).  And the use of the verbs is really pretty similar. Only that you   depend  ON    while you   abhängen  VON    .&amp;nbsp;  
 
 Das   hängt   ein bisschen  vom  Wetter   ab  . 
 That   depends   a little  on  the weather. 
 
 
 Das   hängt    davon    ab  ,  wie müde ich bin.  
 That   depends    on   h ow tired I am   .  
 
   Abhängen  &amp;nbsp;is just as useful and common as   depend   and the same goes for the related words. 
 
 Das Trinkgeld ist  von  der Servicequalität   abhängig  . 
 The tip is d  ependent    on  the quality of service. (literal) 
 
 
 Das Kino macht immer eine Pause im Film, völlig   unabhängig davon  ,&amp;nbsp;ob es Sinn macht oder nicht. 
 The cinema always makes a break,   no matter/irrespective of   whether it makes sense or not. 
 
 
 Am 4 Juli feiert die USA   Unabhängigkeitstag.   
 On the 4th of July the USA celebrates   In   dependence Day .   
 
 Cool.    Depend   is definitely the most common and most important use of   abhängen  . But as I mentioned in the beginning, there are 4 meanings in total, so three more to go. Here they are:  to lose   in sense of    losing a pursuer,   to take down   laundry    and    to hang around/chill    (with friends).  A really&amp;nbsp;random collection of contexts and yet&amp;nbsp;they all make sense. I mean, you hang up your laundry so you can also&amp;nbsp;“hang it off”. And as for losing a pursuer…&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;just think of a trailer. It hangs on your car and follows you everywhere. And when you “abhängen” it, it’ll not be after you anymore.  So, not super logical but I hope you can see the connections.  Examples. 
 
 Wir haben den Verfolger    abgehängt   . 
 We    lost    the tail. 
 
 
 Die Serie&amp;nbsp;hat die Konkurrenz    abgehängt .   
 The show/TV-series has clearly    outperformed    the competition. 
 
 
 Maria    hängt    die Wäsche, die Thomas aufgehängt hat,&amp;nbsp;   ab   . 
 Maria &amp;nbsp;  takes down/unhangs    the laundry Thomas had hung up. 
 
 
 Nach der Schule    hängen    wir immer im Park    ab   . 
 After school we’re always    chilling/hanging out    in the park. 
 
 
 Wo wir    abhängen    hängt   vom Wetter   ab  . 
 Where we    hang out    depends   on the weather. 
 
 All of them are common in their respective domain but   abhängen   in sense of hanging out definitely&amp;nbsp;sounds a bit like juvenile slang. So if you tell your kids&amp;nbsp;that you’ll go  abhängen  with the peeps from the grind.. that won’t come across as authentic as you think.
