Explanation | Yet means 'up to the moment of speaking' and is used mainly in questions and negative sentences: 'Do you feel any better yet?' 'The post office isn't open yet.' When you want to say that an earlier state or situation has not changed, use still: 'I've taken the medicine but I still feel terrible.' 'Does Hilary still go to the same school?' |
