You should not say for another example.
The phrase for example does not tell the reader what you are about to say, it tells the reader why you are saying it. This is why we use the preposition for, just as we might say for better understanding or for comic relief, and it is why we do not say for an example. Example is not used as the 'countable' noun but as a generic quality attributed to what follows: it exemplifies what has gone before.
Answer from StoneyB on hiatus on Stack ExchangeHow is the word 'example' distinct from other similar nouns?
Some common synonyms of example are case, illustration, instance, sample, and specimen. While all these words mean "something that exhibits distinguishing characteristics in its category," example applies to a typical, representative, or illustrative instance or case.
// a typical example of bureaucratic waste
When is 'sample' a more appropriate choice than 'example'?
Although the words sample and example have much in common, sample implies a part or unit taken at random from a larger whole and so presumed to be typical of its qualities.
// show us a sample of your work
When would 'illustration' be a good substitute for 'example'?
The meanings of illustration and example largely overlap; however, illustration applies to an instance offered as a means of clarifying or illuminating a general statement.
// a telling illustration of Murphy's Law

In formal writing or speaking, there's no need to put for for the second time when it's quite obvious that you are mentioning one more example.
For example: blah...blah...blah...
(And...) Another example (is): blah...blah...blah...
So I am writing a speech and I know I have a word to replace example with, BUT I forgot it and I tried looking it up etc... Does anyone know a good word that like can replace example. Think about it. Setting high (blank) for yourself. Wouldnt be profile or anything its a strong word I cant think of
I'm in my first year of uni & they don't use phrases like the one above. I used this all throughout high school. I'm not sure what to replace it with as I'm not allowed to use this type of language in uni.
