Adverbs of frequency (AoF) let us talk about how often we do something.
How often do you come to class? I always come to class!
How often do you shop at Fred’s? I often shop at Fred’s.
Study the chart below to learn the meanings of the following adverbs.
Adverb | Frequency |
---|---|
always | 100% |
usually | 70-90% |
often | 50-60% |
sometimes | 30-40% |
seldom/rarely | 10-20% |
never | 0% |
Adverbs of Frequency (AoF) with the BE Verb
With the BE verb, the AoFs are added between BE and the rest of the sentence. You will see in the next section that this is different with other verbs.
Subject | BE | AoF | Rest of Sentence |
---|---|---|---|
I | am | never | late. |
He She It | is | always | on time. |
You We They | are | sometimes | early. |
Directions: Put the correct form of the BE verb followed by the AoF on the line.
1. I (be/always) _____________________________________ late.
2. He (be/never) _____________________________________ on time.
3. She (be/often) _____________________________________ busy on Saturday.

6. He (rarely)___________________________ on time for class.
7. They (sometimes)___________________________ confused in class.
8. You (often)___________________________ sleepy.
Adverbs of Frequency with Other Verbs
But, what if we want to say how often we do some activity? In that case, we don’t use the BE verb. We use another verb, like eat, sleep, cook, drive, or talk.
Instead of adding the AoF after the verb, like we did with the BE verb, we add it before the verb. We do this because we are saying how often the activity of the verb happens.
Subject | AoF | Verb | Rest of Sentence |
---|---|---|---|
I | always | eat | breakfast. |
He She It | usually | does | his own laundry. |
You We They | never | walk | to school. |
We use the AoF to talk about how often or how frequently something happens.
How often do you eat breakfast? I always eat breakfast.
In the sentence above, we are saying how often we eat breakfast (always).
How often does he cook dinner? He usually cooks dinner.
In the sentence above, we are saying how often he cooks dinner. (usually).
How often do they walk to school? They never walk to school.
In the sentence above, we are saying how often they walk to school (never).
Directions: Write the Adverb of frequency (AoF) and the verb in the correct form on the line.
When we use any verb except the BE verb, the AoF goes before the verb.
1. I (never/eat) ___________________ breakfast.
2. You (often/do) ___________________ laundry on Saturdays.
3. He (usually/swim) ___________________ on weekends.
4. She (never/sing) ___________________ karaoke.

Part 2 Directions: Choose 5 of the questions (and answers) from Part 1. On your own lined paper, use the answers to write sentences about your classmate’s activities. Remember to use adverbs of frequency. Turn this in to your teacher. Write your name, the date, and Activity 3.12 on the top of your paper.
Directions: The purpose of this game is to practice using adverbs of frequency. Your teacher will give you some AoF game cards (often, sometimes, never).
The goal of the game is to give away all of your cards.
Student 1: How often do you eat french fries for breakfast?
Student 2: I never eat french fries for breakfast.
(Student 1 gives the card saying “never” to Student 2)
Student 1: How often do you do your homework?
Student 2: I usually do my homework.
(Student 1 doesn’t have a ”usually” card. Student 1 changes partners and tries again.)
Ideas for Questions: How often do you…
wash your hair?
eat at a restaurant?
call your brother?
walk to school?
We add -s and -es for two reasons:
1. The word is a noun, and we are making it plural.
2. The word is a verb, and it agrees with the subject (he, she, or it–3rd person singular)
In English the same letters can have different sounds. For example, the letter “c” can sound like /k/ in cat , but it can also sound like /s/ in ice .
For words that end in -s or -es, there are three different sounds: /s/, /z/, and /ɪz/. We can predict how the -s or -es ending will sound by the last sound of the word before we add the -s or -es ending.
If the word ends with these sounds: | This is the sound made by adding -s or -es: | Examples |
---|---|---|
/f/ /k/ /p/ /θ/ or /t/ | → /s/ | laughs, drinks, sleeps, births, writes, gets |
/b/ /d/ /g/ /l/ /m/ /n/ /ŋ/ /r/ /v/ /ð/ and all vowel sounds | → /z/ | grabs, rides, hugs, comes, runs, sings, lives, sees, goes, plays, buys, studies |
/ʤ/ /z/ /ks/ /s/ /tʃ/ or /ʃ/ | → /ɪz/ | changes, quizzes, fixes, kisses, uses, teaches, pushes |
/θ/=th as in bath /ð/=th as in that /ʤ/=j as in judge /tʃ/=ch as in church /ʃ/=sh as in wash
Target Word | Ending Sound (Circle your choice) |
---|---|
1. teaches | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
2. teachers | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
3. asks | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
4. kicks | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
5. does | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
6. reads | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
7. watches | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
8. begins | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
9. pushes | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
10. listens | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
11. She works at a hospital. | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
12. He lives with his sister. | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
13. He puts the book on the table. | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
14. She goes to school four nights a week. | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
15. He cooks for her in the evening. | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
16. We need boxes to move house. | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
17. The mom buys groceries after class. | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |

19. I sweep up the leaves on the sidewalk. | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
20. The boys play soccer in the park. | /s/ /z/ /ɪz/ |
Directions: Listen to the teacher say a list of words and then sentences. You will hear each word or sentence two times. Decide if the ending sound is /s/, /z/, or /ɪz/ and choose (by circling or otherwise marking) your choice.
1. /s/ /z/ /ɪz/
2. /s/ /z/ /ɪz/
3. /s/ /z/ /ɪz/
4. /s/ /z/ /ɪz/
5. /s/ /z/ /ɪz/
6. /s/ /z/ /ɪz/
7. /s/ /z/ /ɪz/
8. /s/ /z/ /ɪz/

Using auxiliary verbs.
There are three auxiliary verbs in English: BE, DO, and HAVE. We will learn about BE and DO in this class. We will learn about using HAVE as an auxiliary in the next level. You have already seen the first of our three auxiliary verbs, BE, in Chapter 2. We combine the BE verb with the -ing form of the verb to create the present progressive (an action happening now).
When we make negative sentences with other verbs, we use the auxiliary verb, DO. It has two forms: do and does . The negative not comes after do or does and is followed by the base form of the main verb.
The base form is the infinitive without the to . Instead of “to sing” (infinitive), the base form is sing . Do not add -s to the base verb. Let’s look at an example sentence.
subj do/does neg. base verb rest of sentence
He does not sing in the shower.
Subject | Auxiliary DO | Negative | Base Form of Main Verb | Rest of Sentence |
---|---|---|---|---|
I You We They | do | not | drink | coffee after 5:00 pm. |
He She It | does |
To make negative contractions, we contract the auxiliary verb and the negative.
Subject | Auxiliary DO + not |
---|---|
I You We They | do not = don’t |
He She It | does not = doesn’t |
Directions: Choose the correct form, and then write the contraction on the line. Remember that the auxiliary DO (do/does) has to agree with the subject.
1. The teacher do not / does not eat meat. ___________________
2. I am a homemaker. I do not / does not work outside my home. ___________________
3. She is a driver. She do not / does not work in an office. ___________________
4. He is a vegetarian. He do not / does not eat meat. ___________________
5. They do not / does not drink coffee in the evening. ___________________
6. Palani do not / does not like to wake up early. ___________________
7. Yuri do not / does not want to come to school late. ___________________
8. Yuri do not / does not press snooze on his alarm clock. ___________________
9. They do not / does not have the same habits. ___________________
10. It do not / does not look like a good book. ___________________
11. The students do not / does not do their homework. ___________________

Part 2 Directions: Now, write 5 sentences about your partner. Use your notes to help you. Write your partner’s answers in FULL sentences.
Yes/No questions mean that the answer to the question is either yes or no . These questions don’t use wh- question words. Remember, when we use an auxiliary verb, the main verb is in the base form. The auxiliary verb goes before the subject and the main verb goes after the subject.
Auxiliary DO | Subject | Base Form of Main Verb | Rest of Sentence |
---|---|---|---|
Do | I you we they | eat | breakfast? |
Does | he she it |
Short answers are quick answers to yes/no questions. Remember that if the question uses the BE verb, use the BE verb in your answer. If the auxiliary DO is used in the question, then use DO in the answer.
Do you have cats? Yes, I do.
Are you a teacher? Yes, I am.
Affirmative | Negative | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Yes, | I you we they | do. | No, | I you we they | do not. OR don’t. |
he she it | does. | he she it | does not. OR doesn’t. |
