Sometimes the meaning of "another" is included in your other signs, for example:

They kept moving to another place.
you-GIVE-THEY-[singular] (Hand it to an other person.)
English phrases such as "... another thing is that..." can sometimes be signed using the "ALSO" sign:
ALSO, too, as well,
Come back another day.
BACK-(lexicalized-directional) TOMORROW, OR-(fs) SOMEDAY, NOT TODAY.
If someone uses "another" in an idiomatic way -- just try to match the general meaning.
For example: "If you think that, you have another think (or thing) coming!"
Gloss: YOU THINK THAT, YOU? WILL WHIPLASH, OH-I-SEE, CHAGRIN!
There are usually many okay ways to interpret idiomatic expressions so stay flexible.
Sometimes another might mean "again."
For example ...
Give it another try!
=
TRY AGAIN!
Another way, thing, or item
