نظرة عامة
still haven't/hasn't ضمن زمن المضارع التام (Present Perfect).still haven't في الإنجليزية.- 1زمن المضارع التام (
have/has + past participle): هذا الزمن هو «الرابط» بين الماضي والحاضر. في العربية، قد نستخدم الماضي البسيط للتعبير عن شيء لم يحدث، لكن الإنجليزية تفضل المضارع التام لتؤكد أن «عدم الفعل» مستمر من الماضي وحتى هذه اللحظة. - 2الظرف
still(لا يزال): هذا هو العنصر السحري. وظيفته في الجملة هي التأكيد على الاستمرارية. عندما نضعه قبل الفعل المنفي، فإنه يصرخ قائلاً: «هذا الوضع لم يتغير بعد، رغم أنه كان يجب أن يتغير!». - 3النفي (
not): وهو الذي يحدد أن الفعل لم يقع أصلاً.
still في موقع محدد جداً ليعطي هذا المعنى.still haven't يغير نبرة الجملة تماماً. لاحظ الفرق:I haven't finished the report.(جملة حيادية: أنا لم أنهِ التقرير بعد).I still haven't finished the report.(جملة مشحونة بالتوقعات: أنا لا أزال لم أنهِ التقرير - وهذا يعني أنني أعمل عليه منذ فترة طويلة وكان من المفترض أن ينتهي الآن).
I / You / We / They | still | haven't | arrived | They still haven't arrived. |He / She / It | still | hasn't | called | She still hasn't called. |- موقع
still: يجب أن تأتيstillقبل الفعل المساعد المنفي (haven't/hasn't). هذا يختلف عن الجمل المثبتة حيث تأتيstillبعد الفعل المساعد (مثل:I am still waiting). في حالة النفي مع المضارع التام، احرص دائماً على وضعها في البداية بعد الفاعل مباشرة. - الصيغة الرسمية: في الكتابة الرسمية جداً، قد نستخدم
have notبدلاً منhaven'tلزيادة التأكيد، لكن الترتيب يبقى كما هو:He still has not signed the contract. - التصريف الثالث (V3): لا تنسَ أبداً أن هذا الزمن يتطلب التصريف الثالث. من الأخطاء الشائعة قول
still haven't finishوالصحيح هوstill haven't finished.
It hasn't arrived بل ستقول بغضب خفيف: It still hasn't arrived!.- مثال:
The waiter still hasn't brought our coffee.(النادل لا يزال لم يحضر قهوتنا - ونحن ننتظر منذ مدة!).
- مثال:
He is 40 years old and he still hasn't learned how to swim.(عمره 40 عاماً ولا يزال لم يتعلم السباحة! - هنا نعبر عن دهشتنا لأن هذا العمر كافٍ جداً لتعلمها).
- مثال:
The deadline was yesterday, and they still haven't sent the files.(كان الموعد النهائي بالأمس، وهم لا يزالون لم يرسلوا الملفات).
- مثال:
It’s almost Maghrib, and he still hasn't come home for Iftar.(اقترب المغرب، وهو لا يزال لم يعد للمنزل للإفطار).
still بعد الفعل المساعد.- الخطأ:
I haven't still finished.❌ - الصواب:
I still haven't finished.✅ - تذكر: في هذه القاعدة،
stillتسبق النفي دائماً.
didn't لأنها تشبه «لم» في العربية التي تدخل على الفعل المضارع لتقلب معناه للماضي.- الخطأ:
I still didn't receive the email.❌ (هذه الجملة قد تُفهم، لكنها ليست الأصح للتعبير عن توقع حالي). - الصواب:
I still haven't received the email.✅ (لأنك تتوقع الاستلام الآن وفي هذه اللحظة).
to be أو to have كأفعال مساعدة بنفس الطريقة في الجملة الاسمية، قد ينسى المتعلم haven't.- الخطأ:
He still not called.❌ - الصواب:
He still hasn't called.✅
still و yet:still تعبر عن مشاعر أقوى (إحباط/مفاجأة) وتأتي في وسط الجملة، بينما yet محايدة وتأتي في النهاية.- الخطأ:
I still haven't seen him yet.❌ (تجنب استخدامهما معاً في نفس الجملة، فهذا تكرار غير ضروري).
still haven't وأقاربها من القواعد الأخرى لضمان الدقة في التعبير. إليك هذا الجدول المقارن:still haven't | حدث متوقع تأخر كثيراً وما زال لم يحدث. | إحباط، مفاجأة، استنكار | I still haven't found my keys! |haven't ... yet | تقرير حقيقة أن الفعل لم يحدث حتى الآن، مع توقع حدوثه مستقبلاً. | محايدة، موضوعية | I haven't found my keys yet. |already | تستخدم للتعبير عن حدوث شيء في وقت أبكر مما كان متوقعاً. | إعجاب، سرعة | I have already found my keys! |never | تفيد النفي القاطع والمطلق (منذ الولادة وحتى الآن). | نفي تام | I have never found those keys. |- إذا قلت:
Ahmed hasn't arrived yet(أنت تخبرنا بمعلومة فقط). - إذا قلت:
Ahmed still hasn't arrived(أنت تقول: يا إلهي، لقد تأخر أحمد كثيراً، أنا قلق أو منزعج!).
still haven't في الأسئلة؟Have you still hasn't finished? (خطأ في التركيب) -> الصحيح في السؤال هو: Have you still not finished? أو الأكثر شيوعاً: Haven't you finished yet?. عادةً still haven't هي صيغة خبرية أكثر منها استفهامية.still ضرورية دائماً في النفي؟I still didn't) في المحادثات غير الرسمية، لكن في المستوى B1 والأكاديمي، still haven't هي المعيار الذهبي.write-wrote-written كمجرد كلمات، احفظ جملة: I still haven't written the letter. هذا يثبت القاعدة والتصريف معاً في ذاكرتك.still haven't يظهر للمستمع أنك تتقن فن التعبير عن التوقعات والمشاعر بالإنجليزية، وليس فقط رص الكلمات. استمر في التدريب، وحاول أن تستخدم هذه الصيغة في المرة القادمة التي يتأخر فيها صديقك عن موعد القهوة!Conjugating 'Still Haven't'

ملاحظات ثقافية
British speakers are very strict about using the present perfect with 'still'. Using 'still didn't' sounds very American to them.
In casual American speech, you might hear 'I still didn't do it' instead of 'I still haven't done it'. However, 'still haven't' is preferred in writing.
Using 'still haven't' in an email can sound slightly accusatory. To be more polite, people often use 'haven't... yet' or 'I am still waiting for...'.
The word 'still' comes from Old English 'stille', meaning 'fixed' or 'quiet'.

الأسئلة الشائعة (8)
Usually, no. We use `already` for affirmative sentences (e.g., 'I have already finished'). `Still` is primarily used in negative sentences to show delay.
`Haven't yet` is neutral. `Still haven't` implies that the action was expected to happen earlier and often carries a tone of surprise or frustration.
It is always `still haven't`. The adverb `still` must precede the negative auxiliary verb.
In informal American English, yes (e.g., 'I still didn't do it'). However, for CEFR exams and formal writing, the present perfect `still haven't done` is the correct form.
No, it doesn't change the action itself, but it changes the *pragmatic* meaning—it tells the listener how you feel about the time the action is taking.
Adding `quite` makes the statement softer and less direct. It means you are very close to finishing but not 100% there.
Yes, but be careful. It can sound a bit impatient. If you want to be very polite, use `We haven't yet received...` instead of `We still haven't received...`.
No, that would be a double negative. Say `I still haven't seen it` or `I have never seen it`.

Word order is more flexible in Spanish.
Toujours pas / Pas encore
French often uses 'pas encore' where English speakers would choose 'still haven't' for emphasis.
Immer noch nicht
German uses three words ('immer noch nicht') where English uses two ('still haven't').
Mada ...-te imasen
Japanese doesn't distinguish between neutral 'yet' and emphatic 'still' through word order.
Lam ... ba'd (لم ... بعد)
Arabic uses a specific particle 'lam' which inherently implies the action hasn't happened up to now.
