* Adverbs of frequency structure:

- The general rule is that they go before the main verb. (La regla general es que
ellos van antes del verbo principal) For example:

 I always go to bed at 10pm. (Yo siempre voy a la cama a las 10pm)

As you can see the basic structure of the sentence would be: Subject + Adverb of
frequency + Main Verb + Complements. (Como tú puedes ver la estructura básica
de la oración seria: Sujeto + adverbio de frecuencia + verbo principal +
complementos).

- In the case that the frequency adverbs accompany the verb to be, they go after
the verb to be. For example
 - (En el caso que al adverbio de frecuencia lo acompañe el verbo ser. Ellos van
después del verbo ser.) Ejemplo:

 She is always happy. (Ella está siempre feliz)

 You are never on time. (Tú nunca estas a tiempo).
