What part of speech is the word other?

The word "other" can be a few different parts of speech depending on its context:

* Adjective: This is the most common use of "other." It describes a noun.

* Example: "I have other plans for tonight."

* Pronoun: It can stand in place of a noun, usually when the noun has been mentioned previously.

* Example: "I don't like this one. Can I see the other?"

* Determiner: It precedes a noun and indicates a specific item.

* Example: "Please give me the other book."

So, without more context, it's hard to say definitively what part of speech "other" is.
