"Dead loss" nghĩa là kẻ vô tích sự, vô dụng; điều vô ích.

Ví dụ
The burden on the economy—known as the “dead loss”—is one of the ways to measure the impact of tariffs (quan thuế).

Let me say here now and however, that gold teeth are a dead loss for the purpose of love-biting. You cannot put a proper point on gold teeth and anyway, gold is too soft for an open confrontation (đối đầu) with bone.

This thing, though - Lorenzo; it's a dead loss, so far. The wheelies are exactly where I left them, packed tight together - for the warmth and mutual support - in under the hedge. There's a bit of a wind - but, then, that's what my Da used to say every time he came out of the jacks.
