ADVERB OF FREQUENCY

ADVERB OF FREQUENCY

First, you have to know that in English we have what is called "PARTS of SPEECH"

We can call it KINDS/TYPES OF WORDS. There are 9 parts of speech in English, namely:

• nouns (computer, table, house, etc)

• adjectives (big, low, bright, etc)

• verbs (sit, read, drive, etc)

• adverbs (in the morning, at home, beautifully, always, etc.)

• conjunctions (and, or, but, etc.)

• determiner (a, an, some, any, etc.)

• pronouns (I, you, she, he, etc.)

Miss, you said there are 9 parts of speech. There are still 7 kinds.

Right! there are two more parts of speech. Number 8 is preposition such as to, at, before, after, etc. The last one is Interjection such as oh!, ouch!, hi!, etc. Let's discuss it more detail in another time.

Now let's focus to this ice cream. Looks good, huh?

Ice cream is always sweet. Just like you. You're sweet, too! :D

Just kidding! We're not going to talk about ice cream. AGAIN! it's about ADVERB OF FREQUENCY.

Here are some examples:

always = selalu

often/freqently = sering

usually = biasanya

normally = umumnya

occasionally/sometimes = sewaktu-waktu/terkadang

seldom/rarely = jarang

never = tidak pernah

Miss, how do we use it in a sentence?

I've already used it in some previous slides. Let's click back to the slide.

Can you find the word "always" in the picture?

Right! That's the way we use it.

We can also use it this way:

"Dodo always picks me up at 3 p.m" or

"Sandra and I always go to the beach every weekend."

Can you get the point?
