Aún / Todavía = Yet (in negative forms: isn't, aren't, don't, doesn't, didn't, hasn't, haven't etc)
Aun / Inclusive = Even
*Notice that there is a difference between "Aún" and "Aun" (the little accent mark), it makes all the difference in meaning :)
Examples: (aún / todavía)
* I haven't finished my exam yet. = Aún / Todavía no he terminado mi examen.
*Peter hasn't arrived yet. = Peter no ha llegado aún /todavía.
*I don't have children yet. = No tengo hijos aún / todavía.
*Sally is not ready yet. = Sally aún / todavía no está lista.
*My friends haven't been at any concert yet. = Mis amigos aún / todavía no han estado en ningún concierto.
¡Espero que esto te haya ayudado, amigo! I hope this has helped you, friend! :)

It suposes that "aun" (without accent) means "even"
e.g. "Aun los asesinos tienen amigos" / "Even killers have friends"
"Aun si quieres salir, no tienes permiso" / "Even if you wanna go out, you have no permisssion"
And it suposes that "aún" (with accent) means the same than "todavía": an accion which has lasted or has been repeated since a past", it means "still" in a positive sentence or "yet" in a negatice sentence"
"Todavía/aún estoy en casa" / "I'm still at home"
"Aún/todavía no he terminado la tarea" / "I haven't finished my homework yet"
I say "it suposes that..." because in everyday life people confuses this three words, using them with a same meaning (even+still/yet).

"Aún" y "Todavía" se pueden usar igual y tienen el mismo significado, pero "aun cuando" es igual a "aunque"

Aún = todavía. A un y aun no significan todavía.
