Adverbs of Frequency + Present Simple for habitual actions
We use some adverbs to describe how frequently we do an activity.
These are called adverbs of frequency and include:
Frequency | Adverb of Frequency | Example Sentence |
---|---|---|
100% | always | I always go to bed before 11pm. |
90% | usually | I usually walk to work. |
80% | normally / generally | I normally go to the gym. |
70% | often* / frequently | I often surf the internet. |
50% | sometimes | I sometimes forget my wife's birthday. |
30% | occasionally | I occasionally eat junk food. |
10% | seldom / rarely | I seldom read the newspaper. |
5% | hardly ever | I 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. |
