similar.

linking verb such as are.
In the second example, like is the adjective form that is used
immediately before noun manner.

(Other, another, and others)

•
Other, another, and others are very easy to confuse.
To decide how to use each of them correctly, you must
consider three things:
1. If it is singular or plural
2. If it is definite (the) or indefinite (a, an)
3. If it is an adjective (it appears with a noun) or if
it is pronoun (it appears by itself).
