"还是" (háishi) and "还" (hái) can both mean "still".

- 还是 (háishi) as "still" often carries a nuance of persistence or expectation that the situation remains unchanged, and it is frequently used to emphasize that something is surprisingly or disappointingly unchanged.

- 还 (hái) as "still" is used more neutrally to indicate that an action or state continues over time without additional connotations.

In addition, "还是" (háishi) and "还" (hái) have other meanings that they do not share with one another.
