Remember that: we use yet at the end of questions and negative sentences, to show that the speaker is expecting something to happen.

we use just in positive sentences, to say something happened a short time ago.

we use already in the middle of a sentence to say something happened sooner than expected.

we use still in negative sentences before haven't/hasn't to show a feeling of surprise.

Examples: Has it stopped snowing yet?

I'm not hungry because I've just had lunch.

I can go now. I've already done my homework.

I wrote to her last week. She still hasn't

replied.

we use the past simple to talk about events in the past which are separate from now (the moment of speaking)

we use the present perfect simple to connect the past and now (the moment of speaking)

Examples: That boy lost his eyesight at the age of 1.

My son has worked at this store since May.

Good luck to you all!!
