Horse of a different color
معني: يک موضوع ديگر، يک مطلب کاملاً متفاوت، وصله ناهمرنگ
Eric likes to play jokes on his friends, but he makes sure that nobody is hurt by any of his pranks. A prank that hurts someone is a horse of a different color! Being playful is one thing, but hurting someone by one's prank is quite a different matter.
اريک دوست دارد با دوستانش شوخي کند، اما مواظب است که کسي از شوخيهاي او ناراحت نشود. شوخياي که کسي را ناراحت کند يک موضوع کاملاً متفاوت است. شوخ بودن يک چيز است و آزردن ديگري با شوخي چيز ديگري است.
