Already goes in the middle and means sooner than expected. Yet goes at the end and only appears in questions and negatives. Just means a moment ago.
The shape
have already done · have not done yet · have just done
Say whether something has happened or not, yet.
In Hindi
already बीच में आता है, yet सिर्फ़ सवाल और नकार के आख़िर में, और just का मतलब है अभी-अभी।
CoCap explains every structure in both languages, because a rule you understand in Hindi is a rule you can use in English.
The sentence Indian-English speakers actually produce, and the reason it is wrong.
| Commonly said | Correct English |
|---|---|
I have finished it yet. | I have already finished it. "Yet" cannot be used in a plain positive sentence — that is what "already" is for. |
These come first. The rest of this makes more sense once they are automatic.
Where this structure sits in the ladder, and what surrounds it.
already / yet / just / ever is a CEFR B1 structure — the independent band — and it belongs to tenses. CoCap’s syllabus files every structure this way so you can learn in order instead of jumping between whatever a search happened to return.
