Grammar Rule in 30 Seconds
Use 'still' before 'haven't' to show you're surprised or frustrated that something hasn't happened yet.
- Place 'still' before the auxiliary verb: 'I still haven't finished.'
- Use it for things you expected to happen earlier: 'He still hasn't called.'
- It is stronger and more emotional than using 'yet' at the end.
Overview
still haven't が捉えるものです。これは、単なる事実を「気分（ムード）」に変えてしまう、英語の珠玉の表現の一つです。英文法の世界では、現在完了形（Present Perfect）を使って過去と現在をつなぎます。I haven't finished（終わっていない）という否定文に still（まだ）を加えると、I still haven't finished（まだ終わっていないんだ！）になります。この小さな単語が大きな役割を果たします。これは聞き手に「今ごろには終わっているはずだと思っていたのに」というニュアンスを伝えます。単に事実を述べているだけでなく、驚きや不満、あるいは自虐的なユーモアを共有しているのです。「やってない」と「やろうとしているんだけど、まだたどり着けないんだ！」の違いです。「期待の文法」と考えてください。Uberがここに来るはずだった。Netflixのシリーズがロードされるはずだった。このルールを5秒で理解できるはずだった（大丈夫、理解できますよ！）。このパターンは、Wi-Fiの遅さに文句を言うことから、明日締め切りの1,000ワードのエッセイにまだ手をつけていないことを白状することまで、現代生活のいたるところにあります。共感でき、人間味があり、正直なところ、私たちが少しストレスを感じているときの大半の話し方です。How This Grammar Works
still haven't は「長すぎると感じるタイムライン」についてのものです。99%で止まったままのロードバーを想像してください。それが still haven't の雰囲気です。このパターンを使うとき、過去に始まり、話しているまさにその瞬間まで続いている期間を見ています。通常、現在完了形は不特定の時間に起こったことに使われますが、still を加えることで、動作が「行われていない状態」が続いていることを強調します。まるで家から出ていかないしつこい幽霊のようです。I haven't seen that movie yet と言えば、いつか見るつもりだという意味になります。しかし、I still haven't seen that movie と言えば、おそらく最新のマーベル映画を見ていないことにショックを受けている友人に答えているのでしょう。still という言葉はハイライター（蛍光ペン）のような役割を果たします。遅れに注意を引くのです。あなたの脳の中では、小さな時計がチクタクと音を立てて、「おい、これはもう起きてるはずだぞ！」と言っています。この文法ポイントは、会話にニュアンスを加えるので非常に便利です。「イライラしている」や「待ちきれない」といった形容詞を使わなくても、自分の内面を表現できます。文法があなたの代わりに大変な仕事をしてくれるのです。よりネイティブらしく、より表現豊かに聞こえるための近道のようなものです。さらに、共通の不満を通じて人々と絆を深める素晴らしい方法でもあります。「まだシンクを直してないの？」「いや、まだ水道屋を待ってるんだよ！」ほら、すぐにつながりました（そして、たぶん少し不満を共有できましたね）。
Formation Pattern
I, You, My cat）
still という単語を入れます。これが最も重要な部分です！否定文では、常に助動詞の*前*に来ます。
haven't (have not) または hasn't (has not) になります。覚えておいてください：he, she, it には hasn't を使い、それ以外には haven't を使います。
-ed で終わります（worked など）。不規則動詞の場合は暗記する必要があります（seen, done, eaten など）。
still + haven't/hasn't + Past Participle + （文の残り）
still を迷子にさせないでください！否定文では、主語と haven't/hasn't の間に座るのが大好きです。文末に置くと、フォークでスープを飲もうとしている人のように見られてしまいます。一部の方言では haven't の後に置くことも技術的には可能ですが、B1レベルの学習者にとっては、前に置くのが最も安全で自然な道です。
She (主語) + still + hasn't (助動詞) + replied (過去分詞) + to my DM (文の残り)
When To Use It
still haven't を使いたくなるでしょう。まず、驚いたときです。5時間もメールを待っているなら、友人に "He still hasn't texted me!« と言うかもしれません。still は、ずっと前にその通知を期待していたことを示します。次に、不平や不満にぴったりです。フードオーダーが遅れていて、アプリが40分間も「準備中」と表示しているなら、»They still haven't dispatched my burger!« と不満を漏らすかもしれません。第三に、個人的な目標や失敗に使います。何ヶ月もプログラミングを学ぼうとしているのに最初のチュートリアルすら終わっていないなら、»I still haven't finished that Python course.« と認めることができます。努力と現在進行中の葛藤を示します。第四に、思い込みを否定するのに最適です。「パリ旅行はどうだった？」と聞かれ、何年もその話をしていたのに実際にはまだ行っていない場合、»I still haven't gone to Paris, actually.« と言います。最後に、仕事の場で（慎重に！）進捗の妨げを示すために使います。»We still haven't received the final feedback." これは単に「受け取っていない」と言うよりも、より能動的で緊急性を感じさせます。
Common Mistakes
yet と同じように文末に still を置こうとします。覚えておいてください：yet は文末に来ますが、still は動詞の前に来ます。I haven't eaten yet は完璧ですが、I haven't eaten still はシェイクスピアの劇の登場人物のように聞こえます。もう一つの大きな間違いは、時制の混乱です。I still haven't eat と言ってしまう学習者がいます。過去分詞の eaten が必要です。現在完了形はチームスポーツです。have と動詞の第3の形の両方が必要です。それから、二重否定の罠もあります。一部の言語では I still don't haven't... と言いたくなるかもしれませんが、英語では haven't の中にすでに not が入っています。シンプルにしましょう！また、主語と動詞の一致にも気をつけてください。he/she/it に haven't を使うのはB1の典型的なミスです。必ず He still hasn't にしましょう。最後に、still haven't と still don't を混同しないでください。習慣や一般的な事実には still don't を使い（I still don't like olives）、今ごろ起きていなければならなかった特定の動作には still haven't を使います。Contrast With Similar Patterns
still haven't と haven't... yet の違いを理解することが、プロのように聞こえる鍵です。どちらも動作が起こっていないことを意味しますが、yet は中立的な観察者のようです。I haven't finished my homework yet は穏やかな事実の表明です。一方で、I still haven't finished my homework は、3時間も同じ数学の問題を見つめていて、計算機を窓から投げ捨てそうな勢いに聞こえます。still は期間と期待の層を加えます。もう一つのよくある混乱は already です。already は期待よりも*早く*起こったことに使われます。また、過去形（I didn't finish）とも区別する必要があります。過去形は過去の終わった瞬間（例えば昨日）のことですが、still haven't は今のことです。もし昨日終わらなかったのなら、それは歴史です。もし still haven't finished なら、あなたはおそらくまだデスクに座っています。最後に、still not と混同しないでください。be動詞を使って I am still not ready と言うことができますが、これは意味は似ていますが文法構造が異なります。Quick FAQ
肯定文で still haven't を使えますか？
いいえ！肯定文の still は使い方が異なります。I am still working（現在進行形）と言います。「期待されていたのに起こっていない」という意味では、常に否定文です。
still hasn't は人間にしか使えませんか？
全くそんなことはありません！何にでも使えます。My phone still hasn't charged（スマホがまだ充電されない）のように使えます。
失礼に聞こえますか？
そうなることもあります！ "You still hasn't paid me back" と言うと、かなり対立的に聞こえます。他人の責任について話すときは注意して使いましょう。
フォーマルな文章でも大丈夫ですか？
はい、メールや報告書で遅れを示すのに全く問題ありません。
haven't yet と still haven't の違いをもう一度教えてください。
yet は「今はまだだけど、もうすぐ」。still は「今はまだ、そして、なぜだか気になり始めてる！」と考えてください。期待の強さがすべてです。

よくある質問 (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`.
