Cultural Tip
In Spanish, both 'todavía' and 'aún' can mean 'still' or 'yet,' but 'todavía' is slightly more common in spoken language, while 'aún' often appears in written or formal contexts. The construction 'estar + past participle' (e.g., 'está resuelto') emphasizes the result of an action, which is why it sounds natural when talking about problems that have been fixed or not.
