ἄλλος
állos
An adjective meaning 'another' or 'other' in the sense of 'another of the same kind or group,' primarily used to distinguish one object, person, or idea from another within the same category. In extended contexts, it can highlight an additional or alternative individual or item, often in contrast to a previously mentioned one. While primarily used to describe difference within the same class, it may, in some constructions, simply designate 'some other' or 'someone/something else.'

SIBI-P1 Translation G243-11
another (of the same kind)
| Morphological Notes | Adjective/indefinite pronoun; nominative masculine singular (Gr,RI,,,,NMS); functions substantivally as "another one." |
| Rendering Rationale | The nominative masculine singular form denotes a single additional individual within the same category. "Another (of the same kind)" preserves the root distinction of ἄλλος as one more from the same class, not a different kind. |
