Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Others"

A: Phrases that include “others” can talk about people or things. When you say “the others” you are talking about a separate group of things (from something already referenced). Say I have a book, and there are more somewhere else. I could say “I have one book, but I need to go get the others.” (The others being the books). The phrase “others” can be used in the same way, but is usually described when talking about people. If I wanted to say I have something other people do not, I could say “this is something others don’t have.” When saying “an other” English speakers usually group the two together, making “another.” This is probably used most often. People say this when they want (one) more of something. If I was ordering a drink from a restaurant, and wanted to order one more, I would say “Can I have another?” For the last phrase “the other” this is used in reference to one other item. Usually the two items being compared are the same type of thing. If I was shown two cars and asked which one I liked better I could say “I like this car, but I liked the other one better.” These are very common and can be used with most things, so it is more important to know when they can be used. I hope this helped!

A: THANK YOU! I’ve been studying it for a few years. It’s great to hear that it’s paying off haha.

A: Those two are identical.

“The” is a definite article, so whenever you’re referring to something specific, you use “the”.

The word “Other” always refers to something specific.

In English, it isn’t always required to put a “the” before an “Other”.

For example:
✅Other times, the dog barked.
✅The other times, the dog barked.

Most times, you can choose not to add the “the” if “Other” is at the beginning of the sentence or phrase

A: I think the first one is a complain that he is always... others.
