Common mistakes
Not natural: I need another informations.
Better: I need more information.
Information is uncountable, so it cannot follow another directly; use more information.
Information uncountable noun है, इसलिए इसके पहले another नहीं आता; यहाँ more information कहें।
Not natural: Another students joined the class.
Better: Other students joined the class.
Another goes with a singular count noun; use other before a plural noun.
