The sins of not too competent translators have long been roaming the network, but recently I have come across a masterpiece, against the background of which even “I am a bee’s back.”

The main Hero, this modern Cinderella under the evil fatherhood, looking at the unfinished end of the work that he has to do before he has even the slightest opportunity to deal with his teenage affairs, declares in a completely neutral tone: "When I finish, let Mefuzela call me." Who was Mefuzela before, of course, was not explained.

We tighten the twists. We shake rust and dust from English and common sense, respectively... Imagine the written form of the name...Bingo!

The guy, pretending how much time he will have to kill to fulfill the assignment, throws in his hearts: "When I finish, call me Mafusail." Mauthausen, his mother An old man who lived over nine hundred years.

What was difficult was to strain the brain a little and just translate the phrase. Without any game of words, without internal rhythm, it is not the original English idiom, which would be worth translating similar, but Russian. Just translate the name of a famous mythological character? I don’t understand the movie translators.
