Usage of "not [adjective] yet" inside a sentence

I have studied the usage of "(not) yet" in sentences, but I could not find this specific case:

In the sentence "The process is not ready yet for this user" is the usage for "not [adjective] yet" correct?

I understand that, if it's used at the end of a sentence ("The process is not ready yet"), then it is correct. But I'm wondering whether or not that holds true if the sentence continues after "yet". I know I could rewrite it like:

• "The process is not yet ready for this user"
• "The process is not ready for this user yet"

but I would also like to know if the first form is correct. Thank you!

Solution 1:

Both constructions are correct and mean the same thing, but placing "yet" before the adjective is more usual when the adjective has a complement, whereas when this is not the case, and in particular when a punctuation follows the adjective, it is usual to place "yet" after the adjective. This can be elicited from pages associated to the following ngram .

not yet ready

not ready yet

However, sentences such as the following may occur and are correct.

• They are not ready yet to take on such tasks.
