The rest / the others (其余)

Structure Mentioned part，其余（的）+ remainder = "… and the rest / the others"

其余 (qíyú) means "the rest / the others": what remains of a set once the already-mentioned part is taken out. 一半留下，其余的都走了 = "half stayed, the rest all left". It belongs to the written, formal register, typical of expository prose and reports. The contrast with 其中 is sharp: 其中 points to ONE part of the set, whereas 其余 names what is LEFT OVER after that part is set aside. It often takes 的 when used as a noun (其余的), though it can stand directly before a noun.
