下面两句相等吗?
Five other cars were just behind him.
Other five cars were just behind him.
other 在这两个句子中作什么用法,词性是什么?
第2句需要特指,应加定冠词:The other five cars were just behind him.
这两个other 的区别是:
1. 在five other cars 中,other 相当于red,可去掉。five指数量。
2. 在the other five cars 中,five 相当于red,可去掉。the other 特指另外的。
两个词组的第一个限定词是主要的。去掉第二个,句子仍然是对的:
Five cars were just behind him.
The other cars were just behind him.
说five cars 和 the other cars,都成立。
【说明】要么说 the other five cars,要么说another five cars。不说:other five cars.

数词和other都是后位限定词。后位限定词不像前位和中位限定词那样互相排斥,而是可以同时用于一个名词之前,只要逻辑上不矛盾即可。如果有两个或以上后位限定词同时出现,离名词近的是被突出的。five other cars突出不同,用于先前提到了某个品牌的车如三辆奔驰车在他的前方,后面还有5辆奔驰以外的车。other five cars,突出数量,不强调是否相同的车,如two cars were in front of him, other five cars were behind him, and still other three cars were on his left. 如果先前提到5辆车如何如何,另有5辆在他身后,要说another five cars.
