another 就是泛指， 就是 an other ，跟an apple 泛指一样的，但another它后面可以有名词。 the other 是特指，跟the apple 的特指是一样的。不过它后面也可以跟个名词。 1， I have three daughters. One is a nurse, another is a teacher and another is a worker. 是错误的。 应为： I have three daughters. One is a nurse, one is a teacher and the other is a worker. 第一个不清楚是哪个，反正是一个，是泛指；第二个又是其中的一个，不清晰是剩下的两个中哪一个，所以还是泛指，剩下的那个就是特指的了，就要是the other了。 2, I have three daughters. One is a nurse, the other two are teachers. 正确 三个里说完了一个，剩下的两个是清楚了，是特指的，所以要用the other two.。 再如，如果是4个女儿，是这样用的: I have four daughters. One is a nurse；another is a teacher；another is a doctor and the other is a worker.
