易错句子I haven't finished my homework still.
正确表达I still haven't finished my homework.
英语副词 still 表示“仍然”时要放在句中:否定句中位于助动词之前(still haven't finished)。句末的 still 是“静止地、不动地”的意思,放在这里整句会变成“我一动不动地没写完作业”,因此不成立;汉语的“还”常出现在动词前或句末,直接照搬位置就会出错。

易错句子Haven't you finished your homework still?
正确表达Haven't you finished your homework yet?
在否定句和疑问句中表示“还没……吗”,英语用副词 yet,而不用 still;still 强调某状态一直持续、没有改变。汉语的“还”同时对应 still 和 yet,容易混用,此处问的是“是否已经完成”,必须用 yet。
