840 - Another, The Other, Other

Michael DiGiacomo Happy English
About this episode
The other day, I was thinking about what kind of lesson I can teach here and at first I had an idea, and then I had another idea and then another one. The first one actually brought me to the other one. 

Today, we’re going to talk about three little words that can cause big confusion:
another, other, and the other. They might seem similar, but they’re used in different ways—and understanding how to use them correctly can really help you sound more natural in English.
