在很多出版物中,常常见到“其他”与“其它”两种书写形式并用的情形(指人用“其他”,指物用“其它”)。笔者以为,这实在大可不必,宜取消并存形式,统一作“其他”。因为“其他”与“其它”语音、语义都相同,所以《现代汉语词典》释“其它”同“其他”(用于事物)。可见,“其他”与“其它”并没有区别作用,它们的区别意义等于零,因而它们并存(分写)的价值也就等于零,它们并存的形式应该取消,统一为“其他”。 In many publications, the combination of “other” and “other” is often used (referring to “others” and “other” for objects). I believe that this is really unnecessary, abolish the coexistence of the form should be removed, unified as “other.” Because “other” and “other” voices have the same semantics, modern Chinese Dictionary interprets “other” as “other” (for things). It can be seen that there is no difference between “other” and “other”, and their distinction is equal to zero. Therefore, the value of their coexistence (division) is equal to zero. Their coexistence should be eliminated and united as “other.”
