含义
我们用STILL表示某事还没有完成(我们回顾过去)
- It's still raining (it started raining in the past and it has not stopped) 我们用YET来表示我们期待某事发生，但它没有发生。但我们认为它会。(我们展望未来)
- Annie hasn't arrived yet. She's late词序STILL处于中间位置(在正常动词之前，在特殊动词(情态动词和助动词)之后)
- I still love you- I can't still see anything但在否定句中，它经常出现在所有普通或特殊动词之前!，尤其是动词 NOT的缩写形式。- I still can't see anything
YET总是在句尾- The movie hasn't started yet用法 我们在各种句子中使用STILL( ) I didn't forget. I'm still thinking about it(-) I've read your explanations, but I still can't understand(?) Are you still working for Microsoft?我们只在否定句和疑问句中使用YET
(-) Wait for me, I haven't finished yet!(?) Has your father arrived yet?
在否定和疑问中
记住，“still”回顾过去，“yet”展望未来
- I still don't have a job (I've been looking for a job in the past but I don't have a job)
- I don't have a job yet (but I will, sooner or later)情形1认为情境是负的，现在是负的。
情形2认为情况是消极的，但将是积极的。
情况是一样的，但在1中我们很悲观，在2中我们更乐观。
在疑问句中，我们也有过去/未来展望:STILL询问过去的行为是否继续，而YET询问某事是否为真或我们必须再等一会儿。- Is it still raining? (the past rain continues or not?)- Is it raining yet? (is the action true now? if not, I expect it to be true in the future)
做连词
STILL和YET也可以用作连接词来表示对比。在这种情况下，它们的意思完全一样:
- I believe you. Yet, I think you are exaggerating = I believe you. Still, I think you are exaggerating
