To d*mn means to curse, as in a magical type curse. People would say "d*mn you to H*ll" and believe that you would really go there. The word means to condemn, curse, or send to the eternal place of torment and suffering.
Some misuse this word to mean a dam, which is a wall for blocking a river. Such a wall is used to turn a river into a lake, help generate electricity, and to form a reservoir for drinking water.
