Already en Ingles
Already is used to refer to an action that happened sooner than expected. We can use it to emphasise that something happened before something else or earlier than expected. IN THIS CASE WE USE PRESENT PERFECT (or past perfect)
- I’ve already spent my salary and it’s two weeks before payday.
- He wanted to see Sudden Risk but I’ve already seen it.
- The train’s left already!
We can also use the present or present continuous to express sooner than expected
- He already has a job.
- They already know what the problem is.
- He is already sleeping.
Yet en Ingles
Yet used with the present perfect means ‘at any time up to now’. We use it to emphasise that we expect something to happen soon. Yet (in this context) is only used in negative sentences and questions.
- Have you finished your homework yet?
- I haven’t finished it yet. I’ll do it after dinner.
- Where’s Sam? B: He hasn’t arrived yet.
We can also use the present
- Are we there yet? (A typical question kids ask while taking car trips with their parents)
- Is the report ready yet?
Still en Ingles
Still can refer to a situation that continues because it hasn’t finished or stopped.
Sometimes this situation has continued longer than expected or the situation can be surprising.
Still can refer to something that is ongoing.
Example sentences using STILL:
- It is still raining.
(It continues right now. It hasn’t stopped) - I still live in Miami.
(Maybe you expected me to be living somewhere else now) - They have been married for 30 years and are still in love.
(Their love continues until now or it is surprising) - I can’t go right now because I am still very busy at work.
(I haven’t finished work. I am here longer than expected.) - Will you still love me when I’m old?
(Will you continue to love me?)
Conclusion:
Still = continues longer than expected.
Already = sooner than expected.
Yet = it is expected but has not happened.
