adv.副词
昨天上英语课时,我常常犯拼写错误。❌ I often made spelling mistakes in English class yesterday. ✔️ I made spelling mistakes in English class several times yesterday. 析 often通常不与其他表示时间的词如yesterday出现在同一句子中,因为often表示“不同场合下常常…”,而不表示“同一场合下常常…”。 他经常因公出差到国外去。❌ He travels often abroad for business. ✔️ He often travels abroad for business. 析 often一般放在行为动词之前,系动词、助动词或情态动词之后,但在强调系动词、助动词或情态动词时例外。 你多久给你的父母写信?❌ How long do you write to your parents? ✔️ How often do you write to your parents? 析 how long指“行为持续的时间”,而how often则表示“多久发生一次”,即某种行为发生的频率。
adv.副词
often, always, sometimes, usually这四个词意思相近。其区别是： 1.表示的频率不同。例如： He comes to school on Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday and even on Sunday.我们可说：He always goes to school.always表示的频率是100%。 He comes to school on Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday and Friday.我们可说：He usually goes to school.usually表示的频率是90%。 He comes to school on Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday and Thursday.我们可说：He often goes to school.often表示的频率是60%。 He comes to school on Monday and Thursday.我们可以说He sometimes goes to school.sometimes表示的频率是20%。 2.always的反义词是never; often的反义词是seldom; usually的反义词是occasionally, sometimes的反义词是always。 often, frequently这两个词都可表示“经常”。其区别是： often是常用词,强调的是经常性,具体时间意味不强; frequently比较正式,强调在某一具体时间内某事一次接一次地发生。试比较： He comes here very often.他经常来这儿。
He comes here very frequently.他来这儿很频繁。always，often，usually，frequently，repeatedly，regularly这些副词均表示频度。 always总是，永远。语气最强，指在一切时候，没有例外。 often经常，语气弱于always,侧重动作发生的次数具有经常性，具体时间意味不强。 usually通常，通例地，指习惯性动作，频度仅次于always，较often大，偶尔有间隔。 frequently时常，经常，与often同义，可通用，但较正式，强调次数频繁。 repeatedly屡次，强调次数多，但反复的频率不一定均匀。 regularly用于修饰经常而有规律性的动作。 来自古英语oft,经常，频繁，来自Proto-Germanic*ufta,频繁地。

adv.副词
often的基本意思是“常常,经常”,主要修饰动词,也可修饰其他副词或形容词,指某件事情在不同场合下屡次发生,具体的时间意味不强。有时often还表示“在许多场合下”。可用于一般时态,也可用于完成体。 often一般位于实义动词之前,而位于to be、情态动词或第一个助动词之后。有时为了加强语气, often也可以放在系动词之前,此时作谓语的系动词要重读。 often有时也可放在句末。如果句子相当短,可将often放在句末,为了加强语气或对比,有时可以移至句首,这时常常引起主谓倒装非正式语体中也可不倒装。 用于疑问句或否定句中, often可以用作表语。 often在用于询问“隔多长时间一次”或“多少次”时,常用于how often短语。
