👆😱 Папа Карло наказывает Буратино.
[ papa Karla nakazyvaet Buratina ]
🇬🇧 Papa Carlo is punishing Buratino.

Everyone knows the fairy tale 'Pinocchio' and its Soviet version by Alexey Tolstoy - 'Буратино' [ buratina ].

In Russian there's an interesting expression:

• Пахать как папа Карло
  [ pakhat' kak papa Karla ]
or
• Вкалывать как папа Карло
  [ vkalyvat' kak papa Karla ]
which means to work too hard and too long, to work like a beaver.

• Я пашу как папа Карло, а он развлекается!
[ ya pashy kak papa Karla, a on razvlekayetsa ]
🇬🇧 I am working hard while he is entertaining!

🎧🗣👇listen, practice and don't work too much on Monday! Hugs!
