A mermaid is a mythical creature that is half woman and half fish. The
name comes from ‘mer’ meaning sea. Some of the bad things that mermaids are accused of include telling
sailors their ship is doomed and enchanting sailors and causing
shipwrecks. Seeing a mermaid is a sure sign of a violent storm to come.
In other stories, they deliberately drag people down in the water and
squeeze the life out of drowning men. They also take men down to their
underwater kingdoms. However, on occasions, mermaids can also bring good fortune by giving
humans cures or granting them wishes. In some tales, they even marry and
live with humans.
