1) other既可以修飾可數名詞又可以修飾不可數名詞。the other表示兩者中的另外一個，與one搭配：the others指已提到的其它部分，與some搭配。
【例如】
I have no other choice but to wait until he comes back.There are two ways for you to choose. One is to follow my instructions, the other is to finish everything by yourself.In the classroom, some students are reading,while the others are busy writing.
2) another表示“另一，再一”，一般修飾單數可數名詞，前面不能用冠詞。在表示時間、金錢、距離的短語前，可以用于有數詞修飾的復數名詞前。
【例如】
When we were talking, another man came and joined in our discussion.This shirt is too dirty. I will put on another one.We need to walk another three miles before we reach the village.I will wait for you for another three minutes. You need to hurry.由another構成的詞組：one after another (=one by one)
【例如】

【例如】
