of another

Morphological NotesIndefinite pronoun, genitive masculine singular (Gr,RI,,,,GMS); denotes possession or relation to a distinct male or masculine entity.
Rendering RationaleThe genitive masculine singular form denotes possession, source, or relation, thus "of another" preserves both the genitive case and the core sense of distinction from one previously implied. It maintains the root idea of a different or distinct one.
