••
Note:

Ci sono tre modi principali per tradurre già in inglese: already, yet e before. - In frase affermativa, si usa solitamente already: già le 10, siamo in ritardo! = 10 o'clock already, we're late!; è inutile continuare, ha già vinto lui = there's no point in going on, he has already won; ne conoscevo già il significato = I already knew its meaning. - In frase interrogativa, già si traduce con yet se quello che è già capitato era previsto o prevedibile, e con already per esprimere stupore o sorpresa; così, un esempio come avete già finito? si rende con "have you finished yet?" se si chiede semplicemente un'informazione, oppure con "have you finished already?" se si constata la conclusione di un lavoro e ciò crea sorpresa. Esempi in frase interrogativa indiretta sono chiedi a tua moglie se è già pronta = ask your wife if she is ready yet, e mi domando se sono già arrivati = I wonder if they are there yet. - Quando già indica ripetizione di quanto è avvenuto in precedenza, nel passato, si può usare before al posto di already: te l'ho già detto = I've told you before (oppure: I've already told you). - Gli esempi mostrano le diverse possibili posizioni di questi avverbi inglesi: already può stare in fondo alla frase, seguire l'ausiliare se il verbo è composto, ma precede il verbo (ad eccezione di to be) se questo è in forma semplice; yet e before stanno solitamente in fondo alla frase. - Va infine notato che already e yet sono spesso usati con il passato semplice nell'inglese americano, e quest'uso si sta diffondendo anche nell'inglese britannico: gli ho già parlato = I already spoke to him; hai già mangiato? = did you eat yet? (ma l'uso britannico standard prevede ancora "I've already spoken to him" e "have you eaten yet?")
