In contrast another is positively pervasive I think it would be fair to say that the second has eclipsed the first to the point of making the first unacceptable, even though it is a grammatical string Both an and another are members of the category of determiners, while other, on the other hand, is an adjective Another = an + other Think of it as of an article plus the word other that have historically merged into one word Grammar requires some article before other book
