Origin & History

From Middle English yet, from Old English ġiet (“yet, still”), related to German jetzt (“now”).

यह Middle English “yet” से आया है, जो Old English “ġiet” (“अभी भी/अब तक”) से निकला है; यह जर्मन “jetzt” (“अब”) से संबंधित माना जाता है।

Definition

“Yet” is used mainly to talk about time (up to now / still / not until now), to mean “eventually” in the future, to add emphasis like “even”, to mean “in addition/remaining”, and as a conjunction meaning “however/nevertheless.”

“Yet” का उपयोग मुख्यतः समय के संदर्भ में (अब तक/अभी भी/अभी तक नहीं), भविष्य में “आखिरकार/कभी न कभी”, ज़ोर देने के लिए “और भी/यहाँ तक कि”, “अभी/बाक़ी/शेष” (in addition/remaining) के अर्थ में, और संयोजक (conjunction) के रूप में “फिर भी/हालाँकि” के अर्थ में होता है।
