(nunca), seldom after him.
(raramente), “to be” auxiliar + frequency adverb
sometimes (a veces), Frequncy adverb + verb Example:
often (a menudo), She is always happy
always (siempre). I am usually late for this class

The words "sometimes" and "usually" can go to the

beginning or end of sentences.

Example:

The internet is slow sometimes

That is why these words "sometimes" and

"Usually" are those in which it does not matter
their placement.
Here is an example of three sentences that say the
same thing only with different structure

1. Usually I´m late

2. I´m usually late
