From Proto-Italic *ke-eteros, from *ke (“here”) + *eteros (“other”).

==== Declension ====
First/second-declension adjective.
The form *cēterus is hypothetical; this word is unattested in the masculine nominative singular in Classical Latin. The masculine nominative singular form cēter would be equally consistent with the attested forms.
