词语用法

adj. (形容词)

1. other用作形容词作“别的,其他的,另外的”解时,常用来修饰复数名词或不可数名词; 如前面有this, that, some, any, each, every, no, none, one等词时,也可用来修饰单数名词。
2. other用在the或形容词性物主代词之后时,与单数名词连用表示“(两个中的)另一个”; 与复数名词连用表示某一集体中“其余的,剩下的(人或物)”。

pron. (代词)

1. other用作代词时常用于复数形式,表示“其他的,别的或另外的人〔事物〕”; others若用于the或表示所属关系的限定词后,则表示“其余的人〔事物〕”,即把剩下的全部包括在内。
2. other也可用于单数形式,表示“(两者中的)另一个(人或事物)”,常与the连用。

词义辨析

adj. (形容词)

other, else

• 这两个词的共同意思是“别的”。其区别是：
• else常用在疑问副词、疑问代词、不定代词后,而other则可修饰单数或复数名词而位于其前。例如:
• Have you anything else to do?你还有别的事要做吗?
• There is no one else to compare with him in this respect.在这方面没有其他人比得上他。
• Any other man would have done better.换上另外任何人都会做得好些。
• I've got other things to think about.我还有别的事要考虑。

some other day, the other day

• 这两个短语意思不同。some other day指“今后的某一天”; 而the other day指“不久前的某一天”。

the other, another

• 这二者都可表示“另外一个的”。其区别是：
• another指特定的某人或某物之外的“任何一个”,用于三者以上; the other用于两者之间,指特定的某人或某物之外的“另一个”“剩下的”。

pron. (代词)

下面两个句子的意思不同:

• A few of them are red; others are white.
• 其中一些是红色的,另一些是白色的。
• A few of them are red; the others are white.
• 其中一些是红色的,其余的全是白色 的。

常见错误

adj. (形容词)

1. 约翰比班上其他的男生都高。

   误 John is taller than any boy in the class.

   正 John is taller than any other boy in the class.

   析 than any boy in the class指的是“班里的任何一个男孩,也包括约翰在内”,如果在any之后没有other,听起来好像约翰不是这个班的,所以必须加上other才指除约翰以外班上其余的任何一个男孩。

词源解说

• ☆ 直接源自古英语的other，意为第二。
