разг.1) (абсолютно точно, метко и т. п.) cf. to a T; to a tittle (a hair, a nicety); to a hair's breadth; bull's eye; on the dot ( of time)Когда круг остановился, Ефим Кузьмич заметил несколько лопаток и восхищённо сообщил: - Тютелька в тютельку, не придерёшься! (В. Кетлинская, Дни нашей жизни) — When the spindle stopped turning, Yefim Kuzmich measured a few of the blades and announced enthusiastically: 'A hundred per cent smooth!'
Пушка содрогается. Выстрел не успевает отзвучать, взметается дружный вопль... - Умыл! - Одним снарядом! - Тютелька в тютельку... - Ай, мастер парень! (В. Тендряков, День, вытеснивший жизнь) — The gun shuddered. Before the echo came back, a howl of delight rose from the onlookers... 'They've done a bunk!' 'With one shell!' 'Bull's eye!'

2) (точь-в-точь похож, одинаков и т. п.) the exact copy of smb., smth.; cf. a spit and image of smb.Она припомнила детскую мечту свою о старшем брате и поверила вдруг, что старший брат, окажись он у неё, непременно был бы похож на Илью. Не обязательно тютелька в тютельку, но брат её наверняка был бы таким же сильным и добрым, как Илья, а может быть, даже таким же красивым. (Б. Бедный, Девчата) — If her childhood dream of a big brother had ever come true, this brother would have been like Ilya, she was quite sure. Perhaps not a spit and image of him, but he would certainly have been as strong and kind as Ilya, and maybe as good-looking.
