ADVERBS OF FREQUENCY

Use adverbs of frequency to say how often you do something. Adverbs of frequency are often used with the present simple because they indicate repeated or routine activities. Forexample, They often go out for dinner.
Adverbs of frequency include (form most often to least often):
always
usually
often
sometimes
occasionally
seldom
rarely
never
If the sentence has one verb (e.g. no auxiliary verb) put the adverb in the middle of the sentence after the subject and before the verb.
Examples
Tom usually goes to work by car.
Janet never flies. She always goes by bus.Adverbs of frequency come after the verb 'be':
Examples
I am never late for work.
Peter is often at school.
If the sentence has more than one verb (e.g. auxiliary verb), put the adverb of frequency before the main verb.
Examples
I can never remember anything!
They have often visited Rome.
When using adverbs of frequency in the question or negative form, put the adverb of frequency beforethe main verb.
Examples
She doesn't often visit Europe.
Do you usually get up early?
Use the imperative form when giving instructions or orders. The imperative is also very common in written instructions. Be careful when you use the imperative, as it is often considered impolite in English. If someone asks you for instructions, use the imperative. If, on the other hand, you would like torequest that someone do something use a polite question form.
There is only one imperative form for both 'you' singular and plural.

Examples:

Hurry up!
Take the first left, go straight on and the supermarket is on the left.

Positive

Base Form of Verb + Objects

Turn the music down, please.
Insert coins into the slot.

Negative

Do + Not + Base Form of Verb + Objects

Do not smokein this building. Don't rush, I'm not in a hurry.

Adjectives Modify Nouns
• Adjectives are placed directly before a noun:
Examples:
Tom is an excellent singer.
I bought a comfortable chair.
She's thinking about buying a new house.
• Adjectives are also used in simple sentences with the verb 'to be'. In this case, the adjective describes the subject of the sentence:
Examples:...
