就 does not have a corresponding meaning in English though...but it is often used to emphasize an action or a description. Here’s a few examples you can use 就
1)我早上6時就要起床凖備早餐了. I have to get up at 6am to prepare breakfast.
2) 就算他如何努力, 這次的考試還是拿不到理想的分數. Despite his tremendous efforts, he could not get the expected results in this examination
