  • 频度副词often用法要点

    频度副词often用法要点

    1. 关于位置
    (1) 表示“经常”,通常放在行为动词之前,特殊动词(助动词、情态动词以及动词 be)之后。如:
    He was often late for class. 他上课经常迟到。
    We often go skating together. 我们常常一道去溜冰。
    You must often come to see us. 你要常来看我们。
    (2) 如果句子较短或为了强调,often可以放在句末。如:
    You won’t see her often. 你不会常常看到她的。
    如果句子较长或为了强调,often也可以放句首。如:
    Often I miss breakfast and have an early lunch instead. 我常常不吃早餐,而吃一顿早午餐。
    有时位于句首或句末是因为本身带有修饰语(如quite, very, so等)。如:
    Quite often the phone rings when I’m in the bath. 电话经常在我洗澡时响。查看详情更多>>

<辨析>这四个词都是频度副词。always 是频度最大的词,表示动作重复,状态继续,中间没有间断,常译作“总是”。其反义词是never。它与进行时态连用时,常译作“老是”,带有厌烦,不满等感情色彩。如:
He is always asking question.他老是发问。
它与完成时态连用时,表示“一向”,“始终”。如:
I‘ve always been interested in such things.我始终对这样的事情感兴趣。
usually 意为“通常”,含有在一般情况下做某事很少有例外的意思,频度仅次于always。
often 意为“经常”,不如usually 那么频繁,表示动作重复,中间有间断。
sometimes 意为“有时”,是这四个副词中频度最低的词。
