ADVERBS OF FREQUENCY :

We use some adverbs to describe how frequently we do an activity.These are called adverbs of frequency 

FrequencyAdverb of FrequencyExample Sentence
100%always I always go to bed before 11pm.
90%usuallyI usually have cereal for breakfast.
80%normally / generallyI normally go to the gym.
70%often* / frequentlyI often surf the internet.
50%sometimesI sometimes forget my wife's birthday.
30%occasionallyI occasionally eat junk food.
10%seldomI seldom read the newspaper.
5%hardly ever / rarelyI hardly ever drink alcohol.
0%never I never swim in the sea.
* Some people pronounce the 'T' in often but many others do not.

The Position of the Adverb in a Sentence

An adverb of frequency goes before a main verb (except with To Be).
Subject + adverb + main verb
I always remember to do my homework.
He normally gets good marks in exams.

An adverb of frequency goes after the verb To Be.
Subject + to be + adverb
They are never pleased to see me.
She isn't usually bad tempered.

We can also use the following adverbs at the beginning of a sentence:
Usually, normally, often, frequently, sometimes, occasionally
  • Occasionally, I like to eat Thai food.
BUT we cannot use the following at the beginning of a sentence:
Always, seldom, rarely, hardly, ever, never.

We use hardly ever and never with positive, not negative verbs:
  • She hardly ever comes to my parties.
  • They never say 'thank you'.
