「辮析」other, others,another,any other, the other
other作形客詞時(shí),沒有復(fù)效形式其復(fù)數(shù)形式“others”,只能作代詞,意思是othen ones(另幾個(gè))或other people(另外的人)
others:泛指另外的幾個(gè)人或東西,the others指在一個(gè)范圍之內(nèi)的另一部分,因此是一種特指的用法
在一個(gè)數(shù)字或是few開頭的復(fù)數(shù)詞語前,用another表示"另外的",不能用other
any other+名詞”用于比較級(jí)的結(jié)構(gòu)中,是指在同一個(gè)范圍內(nèi),除去前面提到的那一個(gè)以外,其他任何一個(gè)如果相比較的成分不在同一個(gè)范圍內(nèi),other便不需要了
指兩個(gè)人或兩個(gè)事物中的另一個(gè),用the other表示,another泛指許多中的另一個(gè)
