adv.(副词)

1. yet用于否定句和疑问句中及用于表示怀疑的动词之后,意思是“还,尚,仍然,直至现在”,在英式英语中通常用于现在或过去完成时,在美式英语中通常用于一般过去时。
2. yet用于疑问句中,还可作“已经”“还”“仍然”解,通常放在句末。
3. yet用于肯定句中,可表示“还”“尚”,有时含有“还为时太早”之意; 与形容词或副词的比较级连用时意为“甚至,更”“还要”,与最高级连用意为“到目前〔当时〕为止(最…)”。
4. yet还可与表示未来含意的情态习语be to或have to连用构成“be yet to”或“have yet to”结构。
5. 在美式英语中, yet可用在感叹句中。

conj.(连词)

1. yet用作连词的意思是“然而,但是”,往往含有“尽管如此,但…”之意,连接意思相反的分句。
2. yet可与and, but, although或though连用。

adv.(副词)

yet, already

这两个词意思相近,其区别是：

1.already多用于肯定句,而yet多用于疑问句或否定句。例如：

The guests have already arrived.客人已经到了。

Have the guests arrived yet?客人到了吗?

The guests have not arrived yet.客人还没到。

2.already有时也可用于疑问句中表示惊讶、怀疑,或者表示期望〔预计〕有一个肯定的回答。试比较以下两个句子：

Have you had your lunch yet?

你吃过午饭了吗?(一般疑问句)

Have you had your lunch already?

你已经吃过午饭了?(表示惊讶)

Have you received your invitation yet?

你收到邀请信了吗?(一般疑问句)

Have you already received your invitation?

你已经收到邀请信了吧?

(料想已收到,想证实)

3.yet有时也可用于肯定句中,意思与still相同(仍然,还; 迟早),而与already不同。

yet, still

这两个词的共同意思是“还”“仍”。

1.still表示某事还在继续; yet则表示某事尚未完成。

2.在肯定句中多用still; 在否定句中多用yet。

but，however，still，yet，nevertheless，while，whereas

这些连词或副词均含“但是，可是，然而，而”之意。

but口语常用词，语气较强，泛指与前述情况相反。

however表转折关系，语气稍弱于but，连接性也弱一些，因而常作插入语。

still语气强，多用于肯定句或疑问句。指尽管作出让步，采取措施或表示反对，但情况仍然如故，无所改变。

yet常用于否定句，语气比still稍强。指不管作出多大努力或让步，仍达不到预期的结果。

nevertheless指尽管作出完全让步，也不会发生任何影响。

while表对比，一般可与whereas换用，但程度弱一些。

whereas表对比，一般可与while互换。

still，yet

这两个副词均含有“仍，还”之意。

still指过去已经开始的动作，说话时仍在继续，可用于肯定、否定或疑问句中。

yet通常用于疑问句和否定句中，指预料要发生的事，但尚未发生。
