Questions & Answers about עוד לא החלטתי מה לעשות אחרי העבודה.
This is very normal in Hebrew.
Hebrew often uses a past-tense verb + עוד לא / עדיין לא to express what English often says with the present perfect:
- עוד לא החלטתי = I haven’t decided yet
- עוד לא אכלתי = I haven’t eaten yet
- עוד לא ראיתי = I haven’t seen yet
So even though החלטתי literally looks like I decided, the whole phrase עוד לא החלטתי means I still haven’t decided / I haven’t decided yet.
Here עוד לא means not yet or still not.
By itself, עוד can mean more, another, or still/yet, depending on context. In the combination עוד לא, it very often means:
- not yet
- still haven’t / still hasn’t
So:
- עוד לא החלטתי = I haven’t decided yet
A native English speaker may expect something more directly like yet not, but in Hebrew עוד לא is the natural order.
