      Haha thanks! Do you mean how come when you breath out you’re able to fog up glass or make a small cloud when it’s cold, that kind of water? It’s mainly because the water is gas form, and there’s very little of it. It’s not able to form the liquid drops that would make a person choke, it’s mostly bunches of water atoms that are pulled out from your mouth and throat as your breath flows out. In the cold air or on the cold surface of glass, these gas drops are forced to come together for greater stability in low temperatures, but before this they are moving away from your lungs and are gas. Hope this answers your question!
