It is also used with one, in a reciprocal sense; as, "love one another," that is, let each love the other or others. ** **: These two imparadised in one another's arms. * Sometimes, the word "whole" is inserted into another by the common process of tmesis, giving: "a whole nother." This is a colloquialism that some recommend avoiding in formal writing. The prescribed alternatives are "a whole other" or "another whole." * There may be ambiguity: "I need another chair." may mean "My chair needs to be replaced." or "I need an additional chair [and I need to keep my existing chair]."Derived terms
