andere
(adjectival noun) (nom. or acc.) (pl.) others; other people This tip is aimed at Intermediate learners: In German, adjectives can be turned into nouns. (eg; alt = old → der Alte = the old man) · These nouns decline (have endings) just like adjectives do, depending on gender/quantity, case and the article used before it. · A lack of any article (the, this, these) before the noun triggers "strong" endings, so in the nominative or accusative plural, this adjectival noun just gains an 'e' ending here. · Usually all nouns, including adjectival nouns, are written with a capital letter. However, "andere" is an exception where it is deemed correct, and even preferable, to write it without a capital letter.

(adjectival noun) (nominative) other one; other stuff This tip is aimed at Intermediate learners: In German, adjectives can be turned into nouns. (eg; alt = old → der Alte = the old man) · These nouns decline (have endings) just like adjectives do, depending on gender/quantity, case and the article used before it. · Definite articles (the, this, these) trigger "weak" endings, so in the masculine nominative, this adjectival noun just gains an 'e' ending here. · Usually all nouns, including adjectival nouns, are written with a capital letter. However, "andere" is an exception where it is deemed correct, and even preferable, to write it without a capital letter.
