Just, already, yet
Just: Is used to indicate that something happened in the immediate past, that is a very short time ago. Position: Comes between "have/has" and the past participle. Example: I have just heard that you have a boyfriend.
Already: Is an adverb used to show that something has happened early, or earlier than expected. Position: Comes between "have/has" and the past participle. Note: Sometimes, already, may come at the end of the sentence for greater emphasis or to show greater surprise. This is especially common in informal speaking. Example: I have already finished my homework.
Yet: Is used in negative sentences to show that something has not happened up to the present time. It also used in interrogative forms to ask if something has happened up to the present time. Position: It usually comes at the end of the sentence. Example: Has your father come home yet?
