ANOTH'ER, a. [an, or one and other.]

1. Not the same; different; as, we have one form of government; France, another.

2. One more, in addition to a former number, indefinitely; as, grant one request, they will ask another favor, another and another.

3. Any other; any different person, indefinitely; as, ""Let another praise thee and not thy own mouth."" This word is often used without a noun, becoming a substitute for the name of the person or thing; as in the last example. It is also much used in opposition to one, as in the first and second passages cited. It is also frequently used with one, in a reciprocal sense; as, ""love one another;"" ""bear one another's burdens;"" that is, love one, or let one love another.
