FREQUENCY ADVERBS

Adverbs of frequency help you to give information about when you do an action. They have a position into the sentence. So please study carefully the rules:

AFFIRMATIVE SENTENCES

I ALWAYS get up at 7.30

She USUALLY has a shower in the morning.

BUT:

I'm ALWAYS late.

She's USUALLY happy.

Frequency adverbs ALWAYS go between the subject and the verb. BUT AFTER THE VERB TO BE.

NEGATIVE SENTENCES

I don't USUALLY go out.

She doesn't ALWAYS go to the beach.

BUT:

I'm not ALWAYS late.

She's USUALLY at home at weekends.

INTERROGATIVE SENTENCES

Does she USUALLY buy here?

BUT:
Are you ALWAYS late?

Is she SOMETIMES happy?
