Episode description

Send us a text【风马牛不相及】Be totally unrelated.春秋时期,齐国的国力强大,齐桓公联合了几个国家打算继续向南,攻打楚国。齐桓公的军队刚到楚国的边境the border,就有士兵报:“大王,楚国派使者来了。”楚国派来的使者名叫屈完,是当时楚国很有才能的一位大臣minister。他对齐桓公说:“大王,您的国家在北方,我们楚国在南方,两国离得这么远,就好像马和牛这两种动物,马喜欢逆风against the wind行走,牛喜欢顺风following the wind行走,风马牛不相及。不知道大王进攻楚国,到底是因为什么呢?”齐桓公觉得屈完说得有道理,就没有攻打楚国了。后来,人们用“风马牛不相及”来比喻两个事物或两件事情不相干,完全没有关系。例句:1.我问他那里的天气怎么样?他告诉我那里的东西很好吃。真是风马牛不相及。2.你提出的问题和这次会议内容风马牛不相及,我们不讨论了。Support the show#One-on-One Online Chinese Lesson:https://www.italki.com/zh-cn/teacher/360...
