Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: a adj., other pron. and n., other adj.
Etymology: In use as pronoun < an , variant of a adj. (compare one adj.) + other pron. and n. In use as adjective < an , variant before a vowel sound of a adj. + other adj. With use as adverb compare earlier other adv.2 Possible currency in Old English. In Old English other adj. and other pron. and n. are commonly used without a preceding determiner in senses equivalent to another pron., adj., and adv., and use without determiner continues in Middle English; compare other adj. 5 and other pron. and n. 6 and also other pron. and n. 7. However, use with preceding one adj. is attested in Old English, both for other adj. and for other pron. and n. The original and expected senses of such a collocation are ‘one second (person or thing)’, ‘one other (person or thing)’, with the first element functioning as numeral, but some attestations of Old English ān ōþer can be interpreted as showing semantic weakening of the first element similar to another pron., adj., and adv.; compare one adj. 14. It is impossible to determine whether the phrase sometimes shows phonological reduction of the first element, as this would not be reflected in the spelling; however, in ān ōþer both elements would originally carry some degree of stress. Although another pron., adj., and adv. could thus be interpreted as partly arising from earlier one other , with phonological reduction of the first element, it seems more likely that the first element is to be interpreted as the article a adj. (which was itself developed from the numeral), because another pron., adj., and adv. does not appear to become more regularly established until the 14th cent. Compare also tother pron. and adj. Compare the following attestations of Old English ān ōþer , used attributively as determiner, and as pronoun:eOE tr. Orosius Hist. (BL Add.) (1980) ii. v. 46 He þonan afor, & his fierd gelædde on an oþer fæstre land, & þær gewunedon oþ niht.OE Ælfric Catholic Homilies: 2nd Ser. (Cambr. Gg.3.28) xxi. 204 Ða ða he his broðor slege ofaxode, þa ferde he to ðam wæle his lic secende, and gemette ænne oðerne him swiðe gelicne.lOE Anglo-Saxon Chron. (Laud) (Peterborough interpolation) anno 656 Siððon com an oþre ærcebiscop to Cantwarbyrig seo wæs gehaten Theodorus. Uses of other with a in Middle English. In earlier use in Middle English not clearly distinguished from uses of other adj., pron., n., and adv.2 with preceding indefinite article, in which the two elements do not form a compound. Later parallel uses with one as first element. Compare equivalent uses of stressed forms of one adj. with other adj., pron., n., and adv.2 and nother adj.2 and pron.2 in Middle English and Older Scots, for example ane oþer , on oþer , onoþer , o noþere . With the form an oþerr in Ormulum compare the discussion at a adj. Form types and analysis of individual forms. With the β. forms, which imply metanalysis (see N n.), compare nother adj.2 and pron.2 Uses where a nother could result from uncertain scribal or editorial word division have been placed at this entry rather than at nother adj.2 and pron.2 The γ. forms apparently show alteration of the second element by association with nouther pron.
Another is distinguished from the other in that, while the latter points to the remaining determinate member of a known series of two or more, another refers indefinitely to any further member of a series of indeterminate extent; it is not, therefore, applied to the determinate second of two.
A. pron.
I. A second, further, or additional person or thing.
