Position of adverbs

[Tdol]

[raymon0902]

Adverd is always after main Verb.
ex:
He drives fast.
She sings well.
=====

[Tdol]

It depends on the type of adverb.

I never go there - frequency adverb

[jargon_dudette]

sentence 1 and 3 are obviously incorrect. (obviously: adverb of manner. hehe..)

[Teia]

"Never" is a frequency adverb. Adverbs of frequency come before the main verb [except the main verb "to be"]:

e.g She is always on time.

Occasionally, sometimes, often, frequently and usually can also go at the beginning or end of a sentence:
e.g
Sometimes they go shopping on Sundays.
I play tennis occasionally.

I just read the examples and judged which one is right based on which one sounds well.

"I never go there." is right! - the others sound so clumsy!

dear teachers, can u help me on the verb's infinitive and gerund?
is there a easy way to decide when to use infinitive or gerund?

[dogg]

i never go there.
the position of the adverb is between the sub and the main verb in the sentence.
