    so u guys dnt have an answer for me

    You are asking your questions wrong. You are looking for the word that shows a human quality. What did the car do that a human can do too? 

    The CAR is given the human quality.It died.Humans die.Cars don't die they just run out of gas.

    It means Fidel has to walk or hitch a ride. ""

    Same as dead parrot in Monty Python sketch.

    In Australianese the use of "died" is a common word for "spat the dummy" "gave up the ghost" plus numerious other phrases that literally mean " it s--t its self" or "packed it in""


     The car died is simply it stopped functioning..


    The assumption that the car has been  given a human characteristic could also apply to electrical work.


    "There was a live wire" "The red terminal is the live one" "You connect the live wire to the cicuit"

    Life is gone. start allover.
