Hi ammiraglia,

The windows are rarely or never opened.

It was rarely indeed that any such request was denied.

rarely = seldom

I believed him to be rarely good and wise.

You can write rarely now, after all your schooling, I should think.

rarely = exceptionally, unusually, perfectly, excellently

Regards,
