adv. (副词)

already的意思是“较早地”“提前”,可表示“比预想发生的时间早”,也可表示“比可能发生的时间早”,含有“想不到某事竟然已经发生了”或“以为某事会晚一些发生”的意味。
already一般用于肯定句中。与动词搭配时,静态动词多用一般式,动态动词多用完成式。表示与现在时间相比而已经做过的事,即by this time,须用现在完成时; 表示与过去时间相比而已经做过的事,即by that time,用过去完成时或过去进行时。already不用于一般将来时。
already偶尔也可用于疑问式,或者表示惊讶、怀疑,或者表示期望〔预计〕有一个肯定的回答。
already在句中一般位于主要动词前面,系动词或助动词后面。为了强调,可置于句末、句首或助动词之前。
already不用于比较等级。

用在疑问句中时，常表示惊讶。
Are you back already?
你已经回来了吗？
注意与all ready混淆。
He is already there.
他已在那了。

He is all ready there.
他在那完全准备好了。

adv. (副词)

already, still: 这两个词意思相近,但already指比预想的时间早, still指比预想的时间长。试比较以下两个句子：

The coffee is cold already.

咖啡已经凉了。

The coffee is still hot.

咖啡还热着。

already, yet: 这两个词意思相近,其区别是：

1.already多用于肯定句,而yet多用于疑问句或否定句。例如：

The guests have already arrived.客人已经到了。

Have the guests arrived yet?客人到了吗?

The guests have not arrived yet.客人还没到。

2.already有时也可用于疑问句中表示惊讶、怀疑,或者表示期望〔预计〕有一个肯定的回答。试比较以下两个句子：

Have you had your lunch yet?

你吃过午饭了吗?(一般疑问句)

Have you had your lunch already?

你已经吃过午饭了?(表示惊讶)

Have you received your invitation yet?

你收到邀请信了吗?(一般疑问句)

Have you already received your invitation?

你已经收到邀请信了吧?

(料想已收到,想证实)

3.yet有时也可用于肯定句中,意思与still相同(仍然,还; 迟早),而与already不同。

already, all ready: 这两者读起来音相同,但却绝非一回事。already是副词, ready是形容词; already的意思是“已经”, all ready的意思是“全准备好”, all用以表示程度。试比较：

He is already there.

他已经在那儿了。

He is all ready there.

他在那儿完全准备好了。

茶已摆在茶几上了。

The tea is all ready on the table.

茶已沏好,摆在茶几上了。

析 already用于一般时态时,其谓语动词必须是持续性动词或状态动词,不可以是终止性动词。

误 Already on my fourteenth birthday I knew what I wanted to do with my life.

正 On my fourteenth birthday I already knew what I wanted to do with my life.

析 already不可与表示时间的副词(短语)连用,应置于谓语动词knew之前。
