  • way.

  • Everyone, welcome to lessen.

  • My name is Michelle.

  • And in this lesson, we are looking at the differences between Woods Still already.

  • And yet what are the differences between their meanings?

  • Do they mean the same thing?

  • No, they don't.

  • They have very different meanings.

  • Join me in this lesson to learn.

  • The difference is so, First of all, we're going to look at the word still before we get onto the sentences.

  • Let's find out what does still mean.

  • So still means that we're talking about something that has continued up till the present.

  • Okay, so maybe something started in the past and it has continued until the present.

  • So something that continues to the present.

  • Okay, So what is it that has continued to the present?

  • Let's find out by reading the first sentence, he still hasn't said Sorry.

  • Okay, so maybe there's this person who committed a mistake and not the person was expecting him or her to say sorry for a very long time.

  • But since the moment they were expecting that person to say sorry until now, that person has not see it said Sorry.

  • So this is when you could use he still hasn't said sorry.

  • So they started to expect it in the future, and the person has not yet done it.

  • So as I told you that it's used for something that started in the past and continues until the present.

  • Now, let's see how to use it in a sentence.

  • All right.

  • What's the correct place off this word?

  • He still hasn't said sorry.

  • All right, So where is the world in the sentence?

  • The main world off the sentences hasn't.

  • All right?

  • It's the main web and still always comes before the main work.

  • Okay, So still would always come before the main work.

  • It would be absolutely wrong to say he hasn't still said Sorry.

  • Okay, that wouldn't be the right sentence.

  • So make sure that you put the still before the main word in the sentence.

  • Okay, Now, let's look at the next sentence that we have.

  • They were still living in London.

  • Okay, now here's does the confusion.

  • So the main warp in the sentences living.

  • But we have another war.

  • Been the sentence, which is the helping world, and that iss were okay.

  • This is a helping world, and we also call it the auxiliary world.

  • It's a form off is Watts were okay, a form of B.

  • Right?

  • So here we say they were still living in London.

  • So just like the previous sentence, okay, Still comes before the main work here before the main work.

  • But it comes after the helping work.

  • So if there is no helping warp in the sentence, you don't need to be confused.

  • And you can simply say he still hasn't said sorry.

  • However, if there is a helping war been the sentence, then it will be between the helping war on the middle warp main verb, which would be they were still living in London.

  • All right, now let's look at the third example that we have got and that is she lives with her mother.

  • Still.

  • So now here we have changed the position off.

  • Still entirely.

  • Okay.

  • It has no relationship with the main work, which is lives.

  • Rather, this word comes at the end off the sentence.

  • So is incorrect.

  • No, it's not incorrect.

  • You can use this formation, but it's just that this is very informal.

  • And you would not find this formation very often while you're reading or listening to someone so this is very formal and not commonly used.

  • Right now.

  • Let's look at the next word that we have for the day.

  • And that is yet.

  • So I haven't read the document yet.

  • Before we get onto the usage will again find out the meaning off the word yet.

  • So Yet it's used when something has not happened up to the present.

  • All right, when something has not happened up to the present.

  • Okay, so we were expecting something to happen, but it has not happened yet.

  • All right, so where do we use yet?

  • Do we use it in positive sentences, a formative or normal sentences, as you can notice that we have not in the meaning itself.

  • Therefore, even when we use it, we use it mostly in negative sentences because we're talking about something that has not happened.

  • So let's read the 1st 1 I haven't read the document yet.

  • All right, so here we are, using it in the end, okay?

  • And we are also using it in a negative sentence, which means that till now something has not been done.

  • Okay, so you always use it in a negative sentence for something that has not yet happened.

  • You're still waiting.

  • When will it happen?

  • When will it happen?

  • And as you've seen you concede in all the four sentences except the last one, we'll come to that later.

  • We generally use yet at the end offer sentence.

  • So be it a normal sentence.

  • Okay, which is a positive story.

  • Ah, full stop.

  • We have a full stop.

  • So it's a normal sense.

  • But here we have a question mark.

  • Right?

  • So whether it's a question or an answer, we always have yet at the end off a sentence.

  • Now let's look at the next one that we have.

  • This is a question.

  • Is the doctor here yet?

  • So here.

  • We're using yet to ask a question.

  • This is another usage off.

  • Yet we often ask it for a question.

  • And this is the simple tents story.

  • Simple, present, tense.

  • So you can use it for the simple presidents.

  • If we climb back to the previous sins, we see that this end sentences in the present.

  • Perfect.

  • I haven't read the document yet, so this isn't a present perfect sentence.

  • So you'll often hear Britishers say it like this, But Americans don't really love have so they generally remove it.

  • Okay.

  • And the user?

  • Simple past.

  • Instead, they'd say I didn't read the document yet, which means the same thing.

  • So if you hear an American, they'll say I didn't read the document yet, But the statement always remains negative because we're talking about something that has not happened so far.

  • The 3rd 1 that we have is Have you done your homework yet?

  • Okay, now, this is another way of asking a question, but in the present.

  • Perfect.

  • So as I told you, a British A would ask you, Have you done your homework yet?

  • But what would an American ask you?

  • He would use the simple past to ask you the same question.

  • He'd say.

  • Did you do your homework yet?

  • Okay, So did you do your homework yet?

  • In the present, Our past symbol tens with yet at the end off the question Now, coming back to the last one.

  • He hasn't yet received the document, right?

  • So the difference here is that we do not use yet at the end of the sentence.

  • But we use it here right after the right before the main work.

  • So this kind of formation is also very unusual and very formal.

  • Just like this one.

  • She lives with her mother Still the same way he hasn't yet received.

  • The document is very formal and you would possibly here.

  • Ah, higher authority saying that to you as the sentence also says the question so he hasn't received the document.

  • He hasn't yet received a document which is very formal.

  • Okay, now we come over to the next one that we have for the day and that is already so what is the meaning Off already?

  • Can we use already in place off yet?

  • We use yet when something has not happened until the present time.

  • But we use already when something has happened in the present before the expected time.

  • So you were expecting something to happen.

  • But it happened before the expected time.

  • So when something happens before the expected time, or when something happens before present, so you can see I have already seen that movie.

  • Okay, Now, as far as the usage is concerned already is a combination off Still, and yet okay, as we use still before the main warp in a positive sentence, The same way we use already before the main world in a positive sentence before the main Werbe and have is the helping world here.

  • Okay, the next one that we have is half.

  • You finished your homework or have you finished your work already?

  • Now, this is a question, all right.

  • And this is going to be very different from the 1st 1 because here we do not have already in the middle of the sentence.

  • But rather we have already, in the end, off a sentence.

  • So we have already at the end off the question says, You can see we put already in the middle off a sentence, but at the end offer question and already means that something has happened before present or before the expected time.

  • As you can read it.

  • I have already seen that movie.

  • So maybe you're talking to your friend who wants to go toe see a movie.

  • Okay?

  • They want to go for a movie with you, and they suggest a movie.

  • But you say OK.

  • No, I've already seen that movie.

  • Let's see another one.

  • Which means that you have seen the movie before.

  • The moment off speaking.

  • Okay, so here we have coward.

  • All the three still yet.

  • And already we know how to use them.

  • And we also know their meaning.

  • So what are you waiting for?

  • Use them.

  • And I hope that all the confusion is solved for you.

  • Thank you so much for staying with me The vice.

way.
