WIZARD:
What do you think Tshombe will do? Will he help his fellow workers organize before the City Council meeting? Or will he just care about himself? About number one? Hmm.

Before we find out, let's review today's lesson. The word 'one' can be used instead of a noun to represent a single person or thing. Watch and listen.
 
DESK SERGEANT:
Well, do you have an appointment to see him?
 
TSHOMBE:
Yes, I have 'one.'
 
TSHOMBE:
There aren't any other complaints. You can't find one from another store owner.
 
WIZARD:
The word 'each' refers to a single item or person within a group of the same type.
 
SHERMAN:
There are many other complaints.
 
TSHOMBE:
What do they say? I want to see each one.
 
WIZARD:
Now, the word 'other' or 'others' refers to additional people or things of the same type. Watch and listen.
 
DEMONIC APPARITION:
Forget about all the others.
 
WIZARD:
The word 'another' usually refers to one additional person or thing of the same kind.
 
TSHOMBE:
No, the 'other' street vendors don't have one. They are with me.
 
WIZARD:
The word 'ANOTHER' can be used like the word 'other,' but 'another' usually refers to an additional person or thing of the same kind.
 
TSHOMBE:
(to Joe) You're drinking another one? How many cups of water can you drink?
 
WIZARD:
Good job. Now, let's watch what Tshombe does. Ready? And action.
