What does dead as a dumpling mean

English

Kamila [148]2 years ago

<span>It means the same thing as "dead as a doornail" completely dead. Dumplings aren't alive so they are "dead". So "dead as a dumpling" means to be completely dead, not alive in the slightest. </span>

To be " dead as a dumpling" means that you are very dead. It's an expression that you use to describe something or someone that you know for sure is dead.

How did American soldiers react to the liberation of concentration camps?
Korvikt [17]

Answer with Explanation:

The American soldiers were<em> astonished</em> to see the emaciated condition of the people in the Nazi concentration camps. They couldn't imagine how the people survived in an area overwhelmed by <em>diseases, corpses and lack of food and water.</em> Thousands of people were kept in this kind of brutal condition. <u>They couldn't contain the Nazi atrocities</u> and immediately started helping the victims by aiding them with food, clothing and shelter. The horrors they encountered were too overpowering and out-of-this-world. They were so enraged that they executed the German guards after the liberation.
