À propos de 未だに

Although stemming from the same kanji, まだ 'still' will almost always be read as (いま)だ 'still' when appearing in its kanji form. When combined with に, like まだ, (いま)だ will indicate that something is 'still (A)', or 'not yet (A)', depending on whether the verb it is paired with is negated or not.

As (いま)だに will be used adverbially, it will mostly appear at the beginning of sentences.

Compared to まだ, (いま)だに is more formal, and will often imply that something has been continuing for a much longer period of time. This is similar to adding the word ずっと to a standard sentence.

        Was going to use the Report feature to make this suggestion, but then thought it might be helpful to get some community feedback on it, too, so posting it here instead.

        I think perhaps it could be rephrased to something like, “it will mostly appear at the beginning of sentences [or phrases].” But I’m not sure what the analog of a ‘phrase’ is in Japanese, so not sure if this is the best way to say it.

        Also, does anybody have any tips/ideas/pointers on how to identify a ‘phrase’ or whatever its equivalent would be in Japanese? Was my suggestion of the word ‘phrase’ for 未だに accurate here, or is there some...
