other,others,the other,another的差別

other意思是“另一”、“另一些”,有複數形式,others既是複數形式。後面既可接可數名詞複數,又可接不可數名詞。在句子中可作主語、賓語和定語。如:Some girls are singing under the bigapple tree and others are sitting on the grass talking。有些女孩在大蘋果樹下唱歌,别的就躺在草地上說話。

another意思是“另外”、“又一個”,表示增加,一般要接可數名詞單數,在句中可作賓語和定語。You have had several cakes.Do youreally want another one?你已經吃了好幾塊餅子了,真的還要一塊?

another後面接可數名詞單數和複數,與the other主要從數量上區分,隻有兩個時用the other,在原先基礎上增加用another。比如:This is one of your socks. Where is the other one?這是你的一隻襪子,還有一隻呢?I have eaten 4 cakes, but I still want another。我已經吃了4塊蛋糕,但是我還要一塊。
