LESSON 3: FREQUENCY ADVERBS
We already learnt the adverbs of frequency ‘обычно’ and ‘иногда’ in Unit 6. Let’s broaden the list of words with such a meaning:
- каждый день 100% every day
- всегда 100% always
- обычно 80% usually
- часто 60% often
- иногда 40% sometimes
- редко 20% seldom, rarely
- никогда (не) 0% never
Listen to the audio & read the examples:
1. Я каждый день встаю в 7 часов.
I wake up at 7 am everyday.
