Questions & Answers about עוד לא החלטתי אם להישאר בבית או לבטל את הפגישה.
עוד לא means not yet.
So:
- עוד לא החלטתי = I haven’t decided yet
A very literal breakdown is something like still not, but in natural English it is usually best understood as not yet.
A close alternative is עדיין לא, which also means not yet / still not. In many everyday sentences, עוד לא and עדיין לא are interchangeable.
החלטתי is the past tense, first person singular form of the verb להחליט (to decide).
The ending -תי usually means I in the past tense:
- החלטתי = I decided
- כתבתי = I wrote
- אמרתי = I said
When you add עוד לא before it, the whole phrase means:
- עוד לא החלטתי = I have not decided yet / I haven’t decided yet
Hebrew often uses a past-tense form in places where English may prefer the present perfect.
