關閉窗口 yet的用法
■yet用作連詞時，與but一樣也主要用于轉折，意為“但是”“而”：
I have failed, yet I shall try again. 我失敗了，但我還要嘗試。
The judge was stern, yet completely fair. 法官很嚴峻，卻完全公正。
They are the same, yet not the same. 它們又一樣，又不一樣。
It is strange, yet it is true. 那真是怪事，然而卻是事實。
I’ve been away only for three years, yet I can hardly recognize my hometown. 我僅在外三年，可我幾乎認不出我自己的故鄉了。
He said he was our friend, yet he wouldn’t help us. 他說他是我們的朋友，但卻不肯幫助我們。
■有時用在句首。如(from www.hz123456.com)：
Yet the house was cheerful. 但屋子里顯得很歡快。
Yet its population has doubled. 但它的人口翻了一番。
■yet有時可與并列連詞and或but連用，構成習語and yet和but yet，且兩者大致同義(均相當于表轉折的but)：
I gave him ten pounds (and) yet he was not satisfied. 我給了他十鎊但他仍不滿足。
She’s vain and foolish, and yet people like her. 她很虛榮愚蠢，但人們卻喜歡她。
She drove very fast to the airport, but [yet, and yet, but yet] she missed the plane. 她開快車去機場，可還是誤了飛機。
■although不能與表示轉折的but連用，但是卻可以與yet連用。如：
Although we have made some progress, yet we still have a long way to go. 我們雖然取得了些進步，但還是遠遠不夠的。
