How to use adverbs of ‘frequency’
Adverbs of frequency tell you approximately how often something happens.
Tip: It’s important to place adverbs in the correct position in a sentence.
Adverbs of frequency can be placed in more than one position in a sentence but we’ll focus on the most natural position for these adverbs in two situations; with normal verbs and with the verb ‘be’.
- subject + adverb + normal verb + …
- I usually arrive one hour before my flights.
- subject + ‘be‘ + adverb + …
- The flight is seldom late.
