In Spanish, "ya" and "todavía" are adverbs that are used to refer to time, but they have different meanings and usages:
Ya: This word is generally used to indicate that something has already happened or will happen immediately. It can be translated to English as "already," "now," or "right now," depending on the context. For example:
"Ya he terminado" means "I have already finished."
"Ya voy" means "I'm coming right now."
