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 7:00.

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.

用法总结

三条规律记住部分频率副词在句子中的位置：

1. 频率副词在行为动词前。

• Helen always starts work at 7:00.

2. 频率副词在系动词 “be” 后。

• Helen isn’t always happy about this.

3. 主动词前面有助动词的情况下，频率副词放在助动词后。

• Helen has always hated early starts.
