Jumbled Sentences: Adverbs of Frequency (Elementary)
23 March 2010: The online version can be found here.
You probably already know about adverbs of frequency, so I won't say too much here, except to say that these adverbs tell us how often something happens. There are plenty of them, but the basic ones you need to know are the following:
never-->sometimes-->often-->usually-->always
If you grade them on a scale from 0 to 5, never is on grade 0 and always is on grade 5.
We normally put these frequency adverbs before the main verb, but after the verb 'to be'. For example:
Pedro usually goes to work by car.
Sam is always on the phone!
