Liv. 31, 14; Suet. Vit. 3:
intermittere diem alterum quemque oportet,
every other day, Cels. 3, 23; 3, 13; 4, 12:

qui (Ptolemaeus) tum regnabat alter post Alexandream conditam,
next after, Cic. Off. 2, 23, 82; so, fortunate puer, tu nunc eris alter ab illo, the second or next after him, Verg. E. 5, 49:

ad Brutum hos libros alteros quinque mittemus,
Cic. Tusc. 5, 41, 121:
basia mille, deinde centum, dein mille altera, dein secunda centum,
Cat. 5, 7.—So with the numeral understood: aurea mala decem misi;

a second ten, Verg. E. 3, 71.—Hence,
d.
Unus et alter, unus atque alter, unus alterque, the one and the other.

Another of a class = alius (as opp. to one's self, to another); subst., another, a neighbor, a fellow-creature, ho pelas (so sometimes heteros, Xen. Cyr. 2, 3, 17); cf. Ochsn. Eclog. 90 and 458 (alter designates the similarity of two objects; alius a difference in the objects contrasted): SI. INIVRIAM. FAXIT. ALTERI., Fragm. XII. Tab. ap. Gell. 20, 1:

In the lang. of augury, euphem. for infaustus, unfavorable, unpropitious, Fest. p. 6 (v. L. and S. Gr. Lex. s. v. heteros, III. 2.).
► The gen.
alterius commonly serves as gen. of alius instead of alīus, Cic. Fam. 15, 1, 1; id. Att. 1, 5, 1; 1, 20, 2; Caes. B. G. 1, 36, 1; Sall.

alter, tĕra, tĕrum, adj. (the measure of the gen. sing. āltĕrĭŭs as paeon primus is supported in good Latin only by examples from dactylic verse (but see alterĭus in trochaic measure, Plaut. Capt. 2, 2, 56), in which īpsĭŭs, īllĭŭs, īstĭŭs, ūnĭŭs, etc., are used as dactyls; on the contr., the regular measure āltĕrīŭs, as ditrochaeus, is sufficiently confirmed by the foll. verses of Enn., Ter., and Ter. Maur.: mox cum alterīus abligurias bona, Enn. ap. Donat. ad Ter. Phorm. 2, 2, 25 (Sat. 29 Vahl.):

quarum alteram (i. e. eloquentiam) vereor, alteram (i. e. gratiam) metuo,
Cic. Quinct. 1; so id. Off. 3, 18; 1, 12; cf. Spald. ad Quint. 9, 2, 6.—
2.
As a numeral = secundus, the second, the next, o heteros:
primo die, alter dies, tertius dies, deinde reliquis diebus etc.,
Cic. Verr. 2, 1, 7:
proximo, altero, tertio, reliquis consecutis diebus non intermittebas etc.,
id. Phil. 1, 13 Wernsd.:
quadriennio post alterum consulatum,
id. Sen. 9:
die altero,
Vulg. Jos. 10, 32: alteris Te mensis adhibet deum, i. e. at the dessert (= mensā secundā), Hor. C. 4, 5, 31.—So, alterā die, the next day, têi allêi hêmerai, têi heterai:
se alterā die ad conloquium venturum,
Caes. B. C. 3, 19; Vulg. Gen. 19, 34; ib. Matt. 27, 62:
die altero,
ib. Num. 11, 32; ib. Jos. 5, 11 al.—So in comparative sense:
alterā die quam a Brindisio solvit, in Macedoniam trajecit,
Liv. 31, 14; Suet. Vit. 3:
intermittere diem alterum quemque oportet,
every other day, Cels. 3, 23; 3, 13; 4, 12:
Olea non continuis annis, sed fere altero quoque fructum adfert,
Col. R. R. 5, 8.—With prepp.:
qui (Ptolemaeus) tum regnabat alter post Alexandream conditam,
next after, Cic. Off. 2, 23, 82; so, fortunate puer, tu nunc eris alter ab illo, the second or next after him, Verg. E. 5, 49:
alter ab undecimo jam tum me ceperat annus,
id. ib. 8, 39.—Hence,
b.
Also with tens, hundreds, etc.:
accepi tuas litteras, quas mihi Cornificius altero vicesimo die reddidit,
on the twenty-second day, Cic. Fam. 12, 25 Manut.:
anno trecentesimo altero quam condita Roma erat,
in the three hundred and second year, Liv. 3, 33:
vicesima et altera laedit,
Manil. 4, 466.—
c.
So of a number collectively:
remissarios pedum XII., alteros pedum X.,
a second ten, Cato, R. R. 19, 2:
ad Brutum hos libros alteros quinque mittemus,
Cic. Tusc. 5, 41, 121:
basia mille, deinde centum, dein mille altera, dein secunda centum,
Cat. 5, 7.—So with the numeral understood: aurea mala decem misi;
cras altera (sc. decem) mittam,
a second ten, Verg. E. 3, 71.—Hence,
d.
Unus et alter, unus atque alter, unus alterque, the one and the other.
(α).
For two (as in Gr. heis kai heteros):
unus et alter dies intercesserat,
Cic. Clu. 26:
adductus sum tuis unis et alteris litteris,
id. Att. 14, 18:
et sub eā versus unus et alter erunt,
Ov. H. 15, 182; so Suet. Tib. 63; id. Calig. 56; id. Claud. 12 (cf. id. Gram. 24: unum vel alterum, vel, cum plurimos, tres aut quattuor admittere).—
(β).
More freq. of an indef. number, one and another; and: unusalterve, one or two:
Unus et item alter,
Ter. And. 1, 1, 50:
mora si quem tibi item unum alterumve diem abstulerit,
Cic. Fam. 3, 9; so id. Clu. 13, 38; 13, 26:
versus paulo concinnior unus et alter,
Hor. Ep. 2, 1, 74; so id. S. 1, 6, 102; 2, 5, 24; id. A. P. 15:
ex illis unus et alter ait,
Ov. F. 2, 394; id. Am. 2, 5, 22; Petr. 108; Plin. Pan. 45 Schwarz; cf. id. ib. 52, 2; Suet. Caes. 20; id. Galb. 14 al.:
paucis loricae, vix uni alterive cassis aut galea,
Tac. G. 6.—
e.
Alterum tantum, as much more or again, twice as much (cf. Gr. heteron tosouton or hetera tosauta):
etiamsi alterum tantum perdundum est, perdam potius quam sinam, etc.,
Plaut. Ep. 3, 4, 81; so id. Bacch. 5, 2, 65:
altero tanto aut sesqui major,
Cic. Or. 56, 188:
altero tanto longior,
Nep. Eum. 8, 5; so Dig. 28, 2, 13:
numero tantum alterum adjecit,
Liv. 1, 36; so id. 10, 46; Auct. B. Hisp. 30; Dig. 49, 14, 3 al.—
f.
Alteri totidem, as many more:
de alteris totidem scribere incipiamus,
Varr. L. L. 8, 24 Müll. —
g.
To mark the similarity of one object to another in qualities, etc., a second, another (as in English, a second father, my second self, and the like). So,
(α).
With a proper name, used as an appellative (cf. alius, II. G.):
Verres, alter Orcus,
Cic. Verr. 2, 4, 50:
alterum se Verrem putabat,
id. ib. 5, 33 fin.:
Hamilcar, Mars alter,
Liv. 21, 10.—
(β).
With a com. noun:
me sicut alterum parentem observat,
Cic. Fam. 5, 8:
altera patria,
Flor. 2, 6, 42 al. —
(γ).
Alter ego, a second self, of very intimate friends (in the class. per. perh. only in Cic. Ep.; cf. ho hetairos, heteros egô, Clem. Al. 450):
vide quam mihi persuaserim te me esse alterum,
Cic. Fam. 7, 5:
me alterum se fore dixit,
id. Att. 4, 1:
quoniam alterum me reliquissem,
id. Fam. 2, 15; Aus. praef. 2, 15.—
(δ).
Alter idem, a second self, like heteroi hautoi, Arist. Eth. M. 8, 12, 3 (on account of the singularity of the expression, introduced by tamquam):
amicus est tamquam alter idem,
Cic. Lael. 21, 82.—
3.
The one of two, either of two, without a more precise designation, for alteruter:
non uterque sed alter,
Cic. Ac. 2, 43, 132:
fortasse utrumque, alterum certe,
id. Att. 11, 18:
melius peribimus quam sine alteris vestrūm vivemus,
Liv. 1, 13:
nec rogarem, ut mea de vobis altera amica foret,
Ov. A. A. 3, 520:
ex duobus, quorum alterum petis, etc.,
Plin. Ep. 1, 7, 3:
ex duobus (quorum necesse est alterum verum), etc.,
Quint. 5, 10, 69:
ac si necesse est in alteram errare partem, maluerim etc.,
id. 10, 1, 26; 1, 4, 24; 9, 3, 6 al.—Once also with a negative, neither of two: hos, tamquam medios, [p. 98] nec in alterius favorem inclinatos, miserat rex, Liv. 40, 20, 4.—
II.
Transf.
A.
Another of a class = alius (as opp. to one's self, to another); subst., another, a neighbor, a fellow-creature, ho pelas (so sometimes heteros, Xen. Cyr. 2, 3, 17); cf. Ochsn. Eclog. 90 and 458 (alter designates the similarity of two objects; alius a difference in the objects contrasted): SI. INIVRIAM. FAXIT. ALTERI., Fragm. XII. Tab. ap. Gell. 20, 1:
qui alterum incusat probri, eum ipsum se intueri oportet,
Plaut. Truc. 1, 2, 58; id. Am. prol. 84: mox dum alterius abligurias bona, quid censes dominis esse animi? Enn. ap. Don. ad Ter. Phorm. 2, 2, 25:
ut malis gaudeant atque ex incommodis Alterius sua ut comparent commoda,
Ter. And. 4, 1, 3: qui alteris exitium paret, etc., Att. ap. Cic. Tusc. 2, 17, 39:
qui nihil alterius causā facit et metitur suis commodis omnia,
Cic. Leg. 1, 14:
ut aeque quisque altero delectetur ac se ipso,
id. Off. 1, 17, 56; 1, 2, 4:
scientem in errorem alterum inducere,
id. ib. 3, 13, 55 et saep.:
cave ne portus occupet alter,
Hor. Ep. 1, 6, 32 Schmid.:
nil obstet tibi, dum ne sit te ditior alter,
id. S. 1, 1, 40; 1, 5, 33:
canis parturiens cum rogāsset alteram, ut etc.,
Phaedr. 1, 19:
nec patientem sessoris alterius (equum) primus ascendit,
Suet. Caes. 61; id. Tib. 58:
in quo judicas alterum, te ipsum condemnas,
Vulg. Rom. 2, 1:
nemo quod suum est quaerat, sed quod alterius,
ib. 1 Cor. 10, 24;
14, 17: sic in semet ipso tantum gloriam habebit et non in altero,
ib. Gal. 6, 4 al. —Hence, alter with a neg., or neg. question and comp., as an emphatic expression (mostly ante-class.; cf.
alius, II. H.): scelestiorem nullum illuxere alterum,
Plaut. Bacch. 2, 3, 22:
scelestiorem in terrā nullam esse alteram,
id. Cist. 4, 1, 8:
qui me alter audacior est homo?
id. Am. 1, 1, 1; id. Ep. 1, 1, 24.—
B.
The other, the opposite:
alterius factionis principes,
the leaders of the opposite party, Nep. Pelop. 1, 4 (cf. id. ib. 1, 2:
adversariae factioni): studiosiorem partis alterius,
Suet. Tib. 11. —
C.
In gen., different:
quotiens te speculo videris alterum,
Hor. C. 4, 10, 6: abeuntes post carnem alteram (Gr. heteros, q. v. L. and S. III.), Vulg. Jud. 7.—
D.
In the lang. of augury, euphem. for infaustus, unfavorable, unpropitious, Fest. p. 6 (v. L. and S. Gr. Lex. s. v. heteros, III. 2.).
► The gen.
alterius commonly serves as gen. of alius instead of alīus, Cic. Fam. 15, 1, 1; id. Att. 1, 5, 1; 1, 20, 2; Caes. B. G. 1, 36, 1; Sall. C. 52, 8; Liv. 21, 13, 3; 22, 14, 4; 26, 8, 2; 28, 37, 6 al.; Col. 8, 17, 2; 11, 2, 87; 12, 22, 2; Sen. Ep. 72, 10; 102, 3; id. Ben. 4, 3, 1; id. Ot. Sap. 4, 1; id. Brev. Vit. 16, 2; id. Q.

alius inter cenandum solutus est, alterius continuata mors somno est,
Sen. Ep. 66, 39:
cum inventum sit ex veris (gemmis) generis alterius in aliud falsas traducere,
Plin. 37, 12, 75, § 197; Plin. Pan. 2, 6 (Neue, Formenl. II. p. 216).
