Learn English – “Still” versus “Yet”

adverbs

In the following sentence, is using of yet correct?

Inserts settlement in a duty that needs it, in the most suitable yet available place.

It seems to me that I must use still instead of yet but at the same time the sentence with still does not sound right.

Best Answer

If you want to use "still", you have to say

... in the most suitable place still available.

You can't use the adverb still (unlike very) on an adjective that precedes the noun. So not

*I am looking for a still available apartment,

but one of:

I am looking for an available apartment,
I am looking for an apartment that is still available.
