要给大家讲讲连词yet的相关用法：
1、yet用作连词时，与but一样也主要用于转折，意为“但是”“而”：
I have failed, yet I shall try again. 我失败了，但我还要尝试。
The judge was stern, yet completely fair. 法官很严峻，却完全公正。
They are the same, yet not the same. 它们又一样，又不一样。
It is strange, yet it is true. 那真是怪事，然而却是事实。
2、有时用在句首。如：
Yet the house was cheerful. 但屋子里显得很欢快。
Yet its population has doubled. 但它的人口翻了一番。
3、yet有时可与并列连词and或but连用，构成习语and yet和but yet，意为“虽然如此”“可是”“然而”，与单独使用的yet意思相同。如：
He's not really nice-looking, and yet he has enormous charm. 他并不十分好看，可是他很有魅力。
She's a funny girl, but yet you can’t help liking her. 她是一个奇怪的姑娘，但你禁不住会喜欢她。
She drove very fast to the airport, but [yet, and yet, but yet] she missed the plane.她开快车去机场，可还是误了飞机。
4、根据英语习惯，although不能与连词but搭配使用，但是although可以与yet搭配连用（此时的yet可视为副词）。如：
Although we are poor, yet we are happy. 尽管我们穷，但我们很快活。
Although we have made some progress, yet we still have a long way to go.我们虽然取得了些进步，但还是远远不够的。

副词的用法中，主要有一个用法，用于陈述句和否定中，谈论预料中的某事是否已经发生，可以译为“还”。比如I haven't asked him yet。我还没有问他。
但要注意，has yet to do sth表示某事尚未发生，这个就记一下吧。例句，the bank has yet to respond to our letter。银行尚未给我们回信。这里的yet副词的用法。
yet作连词的时候表示“然而”相当于它是一个表转折关系的连词。例如：He said he would be late,yet he arrived on time.而我们所熟悉的是它做副词时的意思“至今（还未）”常常接否定句用。例如：I haven't finished it yet.
Yet 有两种常见的情况不表示取反。
yet + more/worse （各种比较级）
She is beautiful, or more yet, of gorgeousness. （她很漂亮，甚至可以说是美丽得耀眼。）
yet + again/another
We had no food last week. It's plain to ee that we will not having anything toeat yet again. （我们上周饿肚子了。显而易见，马上我们又要饿肚子了。）
yet通常用于否定句和疑bai问句。通常already可以du用在句中或句尾，而zhiyet用语句尾。already 用语肯定句,表示更强dao烈语气或者特殊语气时,也可以用在疑问句。

1.yet 尚、迄今、直到现在
yet当作「尚、迄今」的意思的时候，通常会用在否定句，而时态很常出现在现在完成时里。
例：I haven’t spoken to her yet.
我迄今还没和她谈过。
He hasn’t finished yet.
他直到现在还没完成。
2.as yet 直到现在
英语yet也很常会跟as一起出现，中文意思则是「直到现在」。
例：I have received no compensation as yet.
我直到现在还没有得到任何赔偿
3.yet 还、仍然
yet 也可以用在肯定句，用来表达「还、即使现在」的意思。
例：He may win yet.
即使现在他仍有可能胜出。
There is hope for her yet.
她仍然有希望。
4.yet 然而
yet 的常见英语用法，通常是当作副词用，不过yet 还可以当连接词用，而当连接词用的时候，很常跟and一起出现。
例：He’s bald, and yet somehow, he’s attractive.
他秃头，然而不知为何却很有魅力。
I don’t know him, yet I can get his help.
我不认识他，然而我会得到他的帮助。

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。
yet作为副词，表示“已经”、“至今”、“仍然”等。用于否定句、疑问句，通常位于句末。
I haven't received a letter from him yet.
我还没有收到他的信呢。
有时与情态动词连用，表示“迟早”、“早晚”。
We may win yet. 我们迟早会获胜的。
用作连词，表示转折，意为“但是”、“然而”，往往含有“尽管如此但……”之意。
He said he would be late, yet he arrived on time. 他说他会迟到，但他却准时到了。
用于 not (just) yet， 意为“尚未”“还不(没有)”。
A：Are you ready to start? 你准备出发了吗?
B：Not just yet. 还没有。

三、yet句意：在名言警句的意思

有人说罗马不是一天建成的，但一天却能改变许多事。
解析：yet一般用于否定句和疑问句中，表示“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。
yet用法补充说明:（表示从未做过某事，尤指惊人的事或坏事）还未，尚未
英文释义: If you say that you have yet to do something, you mean that you have never done it, especially when this is surprising or bad.
【搭配模式】：yet to do sth.(不定式)

例2: He has been nominated three times for the Oscar but has yet to win.
