A horse a piece is a slang term that means two things are the same or equal in value or quality. It is often used to express that there is no significant difference between two options or choices.
This phrase originated from the practice of measuring the height of horses using hands, where a “hand” equals four inches. When comparing two horses, if they both measured the same height, they were described as “a horse a piece.” Over time, it evolved into a slang term indicating equality or equivalence.
Example 1:
Person A: “Do you want to go to the movie theater or stay home and watch a movie?”
Person B: “It doesn’t matter, it’s a horse a piece to me.”
Example 2:
Person A: “Should we take the highway or the scenic route to our destination?”
Person B: “Either way, it’s a horse a piece, so let’s go with the quicker route.”
