not yet
| Morphological Notes | Adverb (Gr,D); negative temporal adverb indicating that an action or state has not occurred up to the present time. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adverb combines οὐ (not) with -πω (yet/still), expressing temporal negation up to the present moment with implied future possibility. "Not yet" directly preserves this incomplete, expectant sense without adding contextual nuance. |
