yet的用法

■yet用作连词时，与but一样也主要用于转折，意为“但是”“而”：
I have failed, yet I shall try again. 我失败了，但我还要尝试。http://yingyu.chazidian.com

They are the same, yet not the same. 它们又一样，又不一样。
It is strange, yet it is true. 那真是怪事，然而却是事实。
I’ve been away only for three years, yet I can hardly recognize my hometown. 我仅在外三年，可我几乎认不出我自己的故乡了。
He said he was our friend, yet he wouldn’t help us. 他说他是我们的朋友，但却不肯帮助我们。
■有时用在句首。如(from http://yingyu.chazidian.com)：
Yet the house was cheerful. 但屋子里显得很欢快。
Yet its population has doubled. 但它的人口翻了一番。
■yet有时可与并列连词and或but连用，构成习语and yet和but yet，且两者大致同义(均相当于表转折的but)：
I gave him ten pounds (and) yet he was not satisfied. 我给了他十镑但他仍不满足。

She drove very fast to the airport, but [yet, and yet, but yet] she missed the plane. 她开快车去机场，可还是误了飞机。
■although不能与表示转折的but连用，但是却可以与yet连用。如：
Although we have made some progress, yet we still have a long way to go. 我们虽然取得了些进步，但还是远远不够的。
