You use yet in negative statements to indicate that something has not happened up to the present time, although it probably will happen. You can also use yet in questions to ask if something has happened up to the present time. In British English the simple past tense is not normally used with this meaning of 'yet'.

e.g. They haven't finished yet...

尚未作出決定。

2. （與談論過去的否定句連用，表示當時并非如此）還，尚（未）

e.g. He had asked around and learned that Billy was not yet here.
他四處詢問，得知比利還沒到這兒。

In British English, yet and already are usually used with the present perfect tense. Have they said sorry or not yet?... I have already started knitting baby clothes. This usage is becoming more common in British English. In American English, a past tense is commonly used. I didn't get any sleep yet... She already told the neighbors not to come.
英國英語中，yet和already通常用于現在完成時。例如，Have they said sorry or not yet（他們是否已經道過歉了），I have already started knitting baby clothes（我已經開始織嬰兒衣服了）。這種用法在英國英語中越來越普遍。在美國英語中，一般使用過去時：I didn't get any sleep yet（我還沒合過眼），She already told the neighbors not to come（她已經告訴鄰居們不要過來了）。

3. （用于否定句，表示某事以后會做但現在不該或不能做）還，尚

adv.(副詞)

yet用于否定句和疑問句中及用于表示懷疑的動詞之后,意思是“還,尚,仍然,直至現在”,在英式英語中通常用于現在或過去完成時,在美式英語中通常用于一般過去時。

yet用于疑問句中,還可作“已經”“還”“仍然”解,通常放在句末。

yet用于肯定句中,可表示“還”“尚”,有時含有“還為時太早”之意; 與形容詞或副詞的比較級連用時意為“甚至,更”“還要”,與最高級連用意為“到目前〔當時〕為止(最…)”。

yet還可與表示未來含意的情態習語be to或have to連用構成“be yet to”或“have yet to”結構。

在美式英語中, yet可用在感嘆句中。

conj.(連詞)

yet用作連詞的意思是“然而,但是”,往往含有“盡管如此,但…”之意,連接意思相反的分句。

yet可與and, but, although或though連用。

adv.(副詞)

yet, already

這兩個詞意思相近,其區別是：

1.already多用于肯定句,而yet多用于疑問句或否定句。例如：

The guests have already arrived.客人已經到了。

Have the guests arrived yet?客人到了嗎?

The guests have not arrived yet.客人還沒到。

2.already有時也可用于疑問句中表示驚訝、懷疑,或者表示期望〔預計〕有一個肯定的回答。試比較以下兩個句子：

Have you had your lunch yet?

你吃過午飯了嗎?(一般疑問句)

Have you had your lunch already?

你已經吃過午飯了?(表示驚訝)

Have you received your invitation yet?

你收到邀請信了嗎?(一般疑問句)

Have you already received your invitation?

你已經收到邀請信了吧?

(料想已收到,想證實)

3.yet有時也可用于肯定句中,意思與still相同(仍然,還; 遲早),而與already不同。
