まだ~ていません

Still haven't done (something)

JLPT N5
Pattern

まだ + Verb (て-form) + いません

How it works

To say you haven't done something yet, use まだ + ていません. Don't use the past negative (ませんでした) here: that would mean you didn't do it at a specific time in the past.

Examples

  • まだ ひるごはんを 食べて いません。I haven't eaten lunch yet.
  • その えいがは まだ 見て いません。I haven't seen that movie yet.
