Quick Summary: What is the difference between another and other?

A simple rule to help you remember the difference between another and other is:

another + singular noun
other + plural noun
others (a pronoun to replace other + plural noun)

I need other cups. (cups is plural so we use other)

I need others. (refers to other cups)

When to use ANOTHER

Another means:

one more, an additional, an extra

a different one; an alternative one

Another is a determiner (and a qualifier) that goes before a singular countable noun or a pronoun.

Another can be followed by a singular countable noun.
