Dog watch, английский
- A short watch period, generally half the usual time (e.g. a two-hour watch rather than a four-hour one). such watches might be included in order to rotate the system over different days for fairness, or to allow both watches to eat their meals at approximately normal times.
- Собачья вахта
Cat o` nine tails, английский
A short nine-tailed whip kept by the bosun`s mate to flog sailors (and soldiers in the army). when not in use, the cat was kept in a baize bag, this is a possible origin for the term "cat out of the bag," though livestock trade was more likely[11] where this phrase came from. "not enough room to swing a cat" also derives from this.
