Determinantes "other" y "another"
Tengo una gran confusión de las determinantes "other" y "another". Practico en un programa de Inglés y según ambas tienen el mismo significado, pero ¿alguien me podría explicar en qué se diferencian?

Daniela,
Por lo general..."another" = "an" + "other" = "un otro" (aunque no exista en espanol...). Significa "uno mas". "Give me another pencil." --> "Dame otro lapiz."
"Other" sin "an" se usa en la mayoria de los otros casos...especialmente con "the" o a solas. Por ejemplo...con "the" --> "the other person" = el otro persona.; "other people tell me" --> "otros personas me dicen..."
Unos vinculos para ayudarte...

It is very simple. 'Another' and 'other' are NOT different grammatical ideas.
'Another' is just the two words 'an' and 'other' written as a single word - another.
Another = an other = one other.
Es así de sencillo!

En un bar se dice De mi otra bebida (another) In this case its another. meaning one more of the same. Please give me another.
la vi el otro dia. I saw her the other day. You would never say I saw her another day.
