What do the underlined expressions mean? Do you have similar ones in your language?

Cartoon A:

The expression "I wouldn't be seen dead wearing those boots!" means that I would absolutely refuse to wear those boots because I find them extremely unattractive or unacceptable. In Russian, a similar expression is "Да ни за что на свете я не надену эти сапоги!" (I would never in the world wear these boots!).

Cartoon B:

The expression "Ernie's the life and soul of the party" means that Ernie is the most lively and entertaining person at the party, making it enjoyable for everyone. In Russian, a similar expression is "Душа компании" (Soul of the company/party).

The expression "Yes, he's larger than life!" means that he has a very exaggerated or impressive personality. In Russian, a similar expression is "Он очень яркая личность!" (He is a very bright personality!).

Cartoon C:

The expression "You're dead right" means that you are absolutely correct or entirely right. In Russian, a similar expression is "Ты абсолютно прав!" (You are absolutely right!).

Cartoon D:

The expression "You'll do that over my dead body!" means that I will strongly prevent that from happening, even if it means dying in the process. In Russian, a similar expression is "Только через мой труп!" (Only over my dead body!).

Cartoon E:

The expression "I can't for the life of me remember where I put my hat!" means that I am completely unable to remember something, despite trying hard. In Russian, a similar expression is "Хоть убей, не могу вспомнить, куда я положил свою шляпу!" (Kill me, but I can't remember where I put my hat!).

Which cartoon do you like best? Why?

I like Cartoon E best. It's funny because the man can't remember where he put his hat, and that happens to me sometimes too!

Мне больше всего нравится Мультфильм E. Это смешно, потому что мужчина не может вспомнить, куда он положил свою шляпу, и со мной такое тоже иногда случается!
