Placing adverbs of manner, frequency, time, and place correctly
Place adverb according to type (frequency before verb; manner after verb/object; time/place end)
Negation stays with auxiliary; adverb placement rules still apply
Place adverb after subject/aux in questions: Do you often travel?
💡 With be, frequency adverbs follow be; with modals/aux, frequency adverbs follow modal/aux.

With be, adverb follows be.
