截然不同，風馬牛不相及，兩碼事

起源：Horses are registered at birth and the registration includes a record of their color.When a horse is sold, the registration is also transferred.Sometimes the color recorded on the registration may not match the actual color of the horse.The buyer may then suspect the horse is not the one in the registration.e.g.That’s a horse of a different color!那完全是另外一回事。10.beat a dead horse 鞭打死馬(徒勞)11.You can take a horse to the water, but you can’t make him drink.帶馬到河邊容易，逼馬飲水難。
