ket語法老師：other as a deternative types o

Other, the other和another不僅看起來相似。

同時也是兩個意思：限定詞和代詞。

使用過程中容易出現(xiàn)混亂和寫作錯誤

今日王老師就帶大家來區(qū)分other吧~

Other

other ="additional or extra", or "alternative", or "different types of".

other as a determiner

在使用other作為限定詞時，可以連接到不可數(shù)的名詞和可數(shù)的名詞復數(shù)：

Some music calms people; other music has the opposite effect. (different types of music)

What other books by Charles Dickens have you read, apart from‘Oliver Twist’? (additional or extra books)

如果other與可數(shù)名詞奇數(shù)連接，則需要在前面添加另一個限定詞：

Jeremy is at university; our other son is still at school.

注意：other在使用限定詞時，沒有復數(shù)形式。（others）

Mandy and Charlotte stayed behind.The other girls went home. (The others girls...)

other as a pronoun

other作為代詞需要時間，根據(jù)前后文章的內容，可以采用復數(shù)形式。

We have to solve this problem, more than any other.

I’ll attach two photos to this email and I’ll send others tomorrow.

The other

the other as a determiner

the other和名詞單數(shù)的組合是指兩個事物或人中的第二個，也是指事物的對立面：

The gift shop is on the other side of the street.

the 當other與名詞復數(shù)結合時，它指的是一組人或事物中剩下的部分：

Joel and Karen are here, but where are the other kids?

Where are the other two dinner plates? I can only find four.

the other as a pronoun

the 當other作為代詞時，它被用來指代之前提到的另一個或更換事物：

He had his hat in one hand and a bunch of flowers in the other.

She has two kittens, one is black and the other is all white.

在指代多個人或事物時，the ther還有復數(shù)形式ther others：

Bob is on his way here, with the others.

Another

another as a determiner

another只能和名詞單數(shù)結合，指的是另一個，另一個：

Would you like another cup of coffee?

You’ve met Linda, but I have another sister who you haven’t met, called Margaret.

another as a pronoun

作為代詞，another也是指前面提到的事物的另一個或更換：

The applications are examined by one teacher, then passed on to another.
