whole other bag这个表达方式怎么会变成完全不同的意思呢?我对词源很好奇。

Whole other bag意味着whole different matter / situation / problem / issue 。这个表达来自whole other bag of tricks的表达,它是一个英语成语,实际上没有任何意义,可以应用于各种情况。 Whole 'nother matter, whole other thing有具有相同含义的表达,例如Whole 'nother matter, whole other thing 。例子: I thought that my experience as a model would help me in acting. But I was wrong! Acting is a whole other bag. (我认为我作为模特的经验将有助于演戏,但我错了!演戏是一个完全不同的故事。)例子: It's one thing to babysit your friends'or siblings' kids. But having your own kids is a whole 'nother matter! (可以成为朋友或兄弟姐妹的保姆,但是生自己的孩子是完全不同的事情!)
