Can "YET" mean "HOWEVER"?
I know "yet" has many other uses. But, can "yet" also be a synonym of "however?
For example:
-I haven't been invited to the party, yet, I'll try and go there anyway.
-Having a car can be very convenient, yet, it's expensive to buy and maintain one.

Yes, you are right.
I haven't been invited to the party. Yet/However, I'll try and go there anyway.
Having a car can be very convenient. Yet/However, it's expensive to buy and maintain one.
Be careful with your punctuation, especially in the first example.
I haven't been invited to the party yet. = You have not yet received an invitation.
See how that can be different from what you mean?
