Dead on: This phrase means exactly accurate or precise. For example: "You were dead on with your prediction about the outcome of the game." "Her aim was dead on, hitting the target every time." Dead to rights: This expression refers to being caught red-handed or being unmistakably guilty of something. For example: "The thief was caught dead to rights with the stolen goods in his possession." "She was caught cheating on the exam, caught dead to rights by the teacher." Dead as a doornail: This phrase is used to emphasize that something is completely lifeless or inactive. For example: "After the accident, the engine was dead as a doornail." "The party was so dull, it felt dead as a doornail within minutes."
