10 dead ringer
Человек, очень похожий на кого-либо. Выражение появилось в XIX в. в Северной Америке и означало лошадь, которую перед самыми бегами жульнически заменяли на другую, той же породы, если настоящая беговая лошадь вдруг выбывала из игры ввиду болезни или смерти. Слово dead (мёртвый), вероятно, не более чем способ сказать «точный», для сравнения — a dead heat (одновременный финиш), a dead faint (глубокий обморок), in dead earnest (совершенно серьёзно), a dead certainty (полная уверенность). John is a dead ringer for Vladimir Putin, don't you think? — Джон невероятно похож на Владимира Путина, не так ли? -
