HI, everyone
Where should I put "possible" in these sentences? Which sentence is right?
"They are looking for the most efficient possible way to deal with this"
"They are looking for the most efficient way possible to deal with this"
Thank you!
I would choose two but there isn't much of a difference in meaning. ''Efficient'' and ''possible'' are both adjectives that can modify ''way''. ''Possible'' is also one of the adjectives that is both prepositive and postpositive, meaning that it can go both before or after the noun.

In fact, I literally say ‘most efficient way possible’ in my intro video on my profile here haha and I’m a native.. so..

The 2nd example is more ‘English sounding’.

They are both okay, but the second one sounds way better than the first.
