Well, I assume you know what "other" means. So, you will always use "another" if the subject is singular (only one) and as long as there is no definite article (the). I need another book. The book is only one and there is no definite article "the" or words like "any", "some". But: I need the other book. The book is only one, but there is "the" so "an" cannot be introduced. I need other books. In this case the noun (book) is plural, so "an" cannot be used. I need any book. As for "someone" and "somebody", they used to be different but the difference is today considered to be obsolete, so you can use them interchangeably.
