i always think it would be cool to learn danish, or norwegian, or swedish, or icelandic. Then i remember that i live in the US and don't know anybody else who speaks it....

This sure looks like example logos for an auto show, not logos from a real business. Much much rarer. I can only think of one other example. Anyone else know of any?

I doubt any real company would be named "Flittchen Unternehmen"

i think a Flittchen is more of a floozy than a hooker. |
There was a hooker chemical company. I think they brought us the love canal housing development disaster..... |

I always wanted to learn Swedish and I do understand some, but it would definitely make more sense for me to learn Dutch since the border is in walking distance from my house |
I feel the same about learning Canadian. The border is only an hour North of me.

Could not find it used on a support vehicle, but we do have this...

I think fake is a harsh word. I like tribute or fantasy logo better. (Though if this is supposed to mean prostitution, it's pretty dumb.)

A "Flittchen" is a girl with loose morals, but that doesn't necessarily have anything to do with prostitution.
Besides, this word is pretty out of date; it is hardly used in Germany any more. |
