French adverbs of frequency

Adverbs of frequency in French refer to words that describe how often an action takes place.

Some common adverbs of frequency in French are “toujours” (always), “souvent” (often), “parfois” (sometimes), “rarement” (rarely), and “jamais” (never).

Examples:

  1. Je mange toujours des pommes pour le déjeuner. (I always eat apples for lunch.)
  2. Nous sortons souvent le week-end. (We often go out on the weekends.)
  3. Elle parle parfois français. (She sometimes speaks French.)
  4. Ils dorment rarement plus de 8 heures. (They rarely sleep more than 8 hours.)
  5. Je ne fume jamais. (I never smoke.)

Adverbs of frequency can be placed before or after the verb in a sentence, depending on the desired emphasis.

For example, “Je mange toujours des pommes pour le déjeuner” emphasizes the frequency of the action, while “Toujours, je mange des pommes pour le déjeuner” emphasizes the contrast with other habits.

Practice using adverbs of frequency in French sentences to improve your understanding and usage of these important words.
