    Yet is used both as an adverb and a conjunction.

    As an adverb it has 3 more or less similar uses, 2 of them relating to time:

    "yet = by now/then"
    I haven´t learned it yet - meaning: I still haven´t learned it.
    Another way of saying the same thing, using: I have yet to learn it.

    "yet = already/so soon"
    Don´t go yet - don´t go so soon, wait a bit

    "yet = even"
    Words, words and yet more words to learn
    Yet another word to learn.

    As a conjunction:

    "yet = still / nevertheless"
    I practice English everyday, yet I don´t improve.
    Spanish is a difficult language, yet I keep improving all the time.

    " He is driving to work but he is not there yet."
    "Yet" means that he is not there but he will be in a period of time.
