Sam
Welcome to BBC Learning English. I'm Sam and today we're going to look at adverbs of frequency. You know these! Always, sometimes, never. But where do they go in a sentence?
Look at always in this sentence. Does it come before or after the verb?
Helen always starts work at seven.
The verb is 'starts' and always comes before – rule number one.
Next sentence: Helen isn't always happy about this.
The verb is 'is' and always was after – rule number two
Last sentence: Helen has always hated early starts.
Trick question! There was an auxiliary verb 'has' and a main verb 'hated' and always went after the auxiliary verb – rule number three.
Adverbs of frequency
Adverbs of frequency
Adverbs of frequency are words like: always, often, sometimes, rarely, never. They answer the question 'how often...?'
- How often do you go to the gym?
- I always go to the gym.
- I often go to the gym.
- I sometimes go to the gym.
- I rarely go to the gym.
- I never go to the gym.
Where do they go in a sentence?
Adverbs of frequency generally occupy three positions in a sentence - all in relation to the verb.
1. Before the main verb
In the majority of cases, the adverb of frequency goes before the main verb.
- Helen always starts work at seven.
- She usually went to school by bus.
2. After the verb when the main verb is 'be'
If the main verb is a form of 'be' (am, are, is, was, were), the adverb of frequency comes after.
- Helen isn't always happy with this.
- They are never late for anything!
3. Between the auxiliary verb and the main verb
If the sentence has two verbs - an auxiliary verb and a main verb - the adverb of frequency goes between them.
- Helen has always hated early starts.
- She doesn't often go to school by bus.
