"Ještě jsem to neviděla."

Translation: I have not seen it yet.

[Chris900231]

Is:" i had not seen it yet" also correct?

[AgnusOinas]

Technically, "I had not seen it yet" would be "Ještě jsem to nebyla viděla", but this pluperfect construction has been obsolete in Czech for about a century. It's still correct, but archaic. So nowadays, "Neviděla jsem to." can be either "I haven't seen it", "I didn't see it" as well as "I hadn't seen it".

[Hatch-Slack]

Good question. Have you tried to report it?

[Randonneur3]

'I still did not see it' is approved, but isn't 'I had not seen it yet' going too far? A plu-perfect tense, as we'd say in french or italian.

[SmilingNerdyCat]

Why is it "have not seen" instead of "don't see"?

[VladaFu]

It is the Czech past tense, so it can't "don't". It could be "didn't".

[EstaJohnst1]

Help me understand this. I wrote "yet I didn't see it" as if others did see it but I did not. Did I use a wrong word??

[AgnusOinas]

That's a very different meaning than we have here. "yet" at the beginning means something quite different from "yet" at the end. Your sentence would translate to "Přesto jsem to neviděla", for example.

"Ještě jsem to neviděla" means I haven't seen it yet (I'm probably planning to see it, but so far have not seen it), there's no comparison to others involved.
