Hi , all my dear friends here,
As a non-antive speaker , I am pretty puzzled about the two phrases «in other words» and «in another word«. Which one should I choose when use the following sentence?
He does not feel good, in other words/in another word, he is ill.
Many thanks in advance!
Richard

«In other words» is the preferred usage.
At the very least, «another» is singular, and therefore does not match «words», which is plural.
