這些不定代詞不僅在含義上有單復(fù)數(shù)之分,而且在用法上有泛指(無the)和特指(有the)之別。其用法區(qū)別可歸納如下:
(1) 指單數(shù):若泛指用
another,若特指用 the
other。如:
Have
another piece of
chocolate. 再吃一塊巧克力糖吧。
Give that wall
another coat of
paint. 給那面墻再刷一層油漆。
He
wants a
transfer to
another job. 他想轉(zhuǎn)換工作。
He
killed the
other man in a
fight. 他在搏斗中殺死了對(duì)手。

driver of the
other car was a
woman. 另一輛車的司機(jī)是女的。
This one is
shorter than the
other by
three inches. 這一個(gè)比那一個(gè)短3英寸。
(2) 指復(fù)數(shù):若泛指用
other(后接復(fù)數(shù)名詞),若特指用the
other(后接復(fù)數(shù)名詞)。如:
Other boys were
arriving now. 其他男孩馬上也要到了。
Other people have had
similar experiences. 其他人也有相似的經(jīng)歷。

other things I didn’t have time for. 其余部分因時(shí)間不夠沒法講完,只好表示抱歉。
(3)
others的用法:永遠(yuǎn)表示復(fù)數(shù)意義(且其后不能再接名詞)。其用法大致相當(dāng)于“other+復(fù)數(shù)名詞”,同樣地 the
others 大致相當(dāng)于“the
other+復(fù)數(shù)名詞”。如:
He
stood aloof from all the
others. 他和誰都保持距離。
They look
control of the
business from the
others. 他們從別人手中接管了業(yè)務(wù)。
Some
people ski
worse than
others. 有些人的滑雪技術(shù)就是不如別人。
(4) 與some 對(duì)比:與some 對(duì)比使用時(shí),用
others(此時(shí)與 some 同義)。如:
