- A "selkie's wife" is a phrase with two meanings in Rebma.

In modern usage, it has taken on the meaning of someone so dependent on a political or financial patron that they are unable to extricate themselves.
- "Wrestle a Triton" is a saying used to connote something impossible. "Swim from Kitezh to Minos in a week? May as well wrestle a triton."
