How it's used
Focuses specifically on people or entities when you want to suggest an alternative or a replacement. While it can occasionally refer to objects, it is most natural when talking about someone else taking over a task or being chosen instead. It carries a slightly informal tone that fits perfectly into everyday requests or casual conversation.

Common mistake
Avoid using this for inanimate objects when you mean a different version of something, as 另外一個 is often more appropriate for general items. Using 第個 for objects can sound overly colloquial or slightly imprecise depending on the context.
