Questions & Answers about אני עדיין בבית, אבל אני כמעט מוכנה לצאת.
In Hebrew, the verb to be is usually not expressed in the present tense.
So instead of saying something like I am at home or I am ready, Hebrew simply says:
- אני בבית = I am at home
- אני מוכנה = I am ready (said by a female speaker)
That is why אני עדיין בבית literally looks like I still at home, and אני כמעט מוכנה לצאת literally looks like I almost ready to leave.
In the past or future, Hebrew does use forms of to be.
Here, עדיין means still.
So:
- אני עדיין בבית = I’m still at home
Depending on context, עדיין can also mean yet, especially in negative sentences or questions, but in this sentence still is the natural meaning.
