Adverbs of Frequency — Practice

1. "I always get up early": "_______ me levanto temprano."

Answer: Siempre

Explanation: "Always" = SIEMPRE. It naturally goes at the start or before the verb phrase: Siempre me levanto temprano.

2. Translate the adverb: "Sometimes I eat fish" = "_______ como pescado."

Answer: a veces

Explanation: "Sometimes" = A VECES. Like most frequency adverbs, it can start the sentence: A veces como pescado.

3. Which sentence is correct?

Answer: No como carne nunca

Explanation: When nunca follows the verb, "no" must come before the verb — the double negative is required in Spanish: No como carne nunca. (Nunca como carne is also correct.)

4. Complete: "Estudio español _______ los días." (every day)

Answer: todos

Explanation: "Every day" = TODOS los días (masculine plural agreeing with días).

5. "On Mondays I have class": "_______ tengo clase."

Answer: Los lunes

Explanation: "Los + day" means every week on that day, with no preposition: Los lunes tengo clase. "En los lunes" is an anglicism.

6. Complete: "Nado dos _______ a la semana." (twice a week)

Answer: veces

Explanation: "Times" in frequency expressions = VECES: dos veces a la semana (twice a week), una vez (once — singular).

7. "I hardly ever watch TV": "_______ veo la tele."

Answer: Casi nunca

Explanation: "Hardly ever" = CASI NUNCA (literally "almost never"). Casi siempre = almost always; a menudo = often.

8. Where does "mucho" go? "I travel a lot."

Answer: Viajo mucho

Explanation: Unlike siempre/nunca, MUCHO goes AFTER the verb: Viajo mucho.
