yet – can be used in the following ways: 1) as an adverb (наречие) in interrogative and negative sentences and then it is translated as “еще”, “уже”, “еще не” (I haven’t seen him yet <еще>. Have you had your lunch yet <уже>. He hasn’t come yet <еще не>). 2) as a conjunction (союз) when it connects two words, phrases or clauses and then it is translated as “однако”.
