LESSON

ADVERBS OF FREQUENCY


     Adverbs of frequency are used to talk about the frequency in which something happens.

     In affirmative sentences, the frequency adverb goes before most verbs.

     Example: I always make my bed.

     Frequency adverbs go before the verb to be.

     Example: I’m never late for class.

     In negative sentences, the frequency adverb goes between the auxiliary and the verb.

     Example: I don’t usually make dinner.

     In questions, the frequency adverb goes before the verb.

     Example: Do you usually help at home?

In this table, you can see a frequency scale:
