How to say "Other" in Japanese

When translating "other" into Japanese, you must choose carefully between 一方で and 他方. In Japanese, 一方で (いっぽうで (ippou de)) is typically associated with "on the other hand, while, meanwhile" (Syllabus Level: N3) and represents Used to express contrasting ideas or two different aspects of the same thing. It can also indicate simultaneous actions or states.. On the other hand, 他方 (たほう (tahō)) maps to "on the other hand; meanwhile; another side" (Syllabus Level: N2) and represents Used to introduce a contrasting or different aspect, similar to "on the other hand" or "meanwhile" in English. Often used in formal writing or speeches.. A literal translation of "other" can often sound unnatural to native Japanese speakers if mixed up!
