3. in many cases or instances

Often is usually used before the verb, but it may be used after the verb when it has a word like ‘less’ or ‘more’ before it, or when the clause is negative.
often通常用于动词前，但若前面有less，more等词，或从句为否定形式时，可置于动词之后。

1. 常常；经常
If something often happens, it happens many times or much of the time.

e.g. They often spent Christmas at Prescott Hill...

e.g. How often do you brush your teeth?...
你多久刷一次牙？
e.g. I don't know how often I heard the same awful jokes...
这种千篇一律的烂笑话我不知道听过多少回了。

指某事在短时间内数次发生时，不能用often。例如，不能说 I often phoned her yesterday, 只能说 I phoned her several times yesterday（我昨天给她打了好几次电话）或者 I kept phoning her yesterday（我昨天一直给她打电话）。

他会时不时回头看她一眼。

4. 往往；多半；通常

e.g. Yet, as often as not, they find themselves the target of persecution rather than praise...
然而，他们发现自己往往不是被赞扬而是遭刁难。
e.g. Although sometimes I feel like bothering, as often as not I don't...

词语用法
词义讲解
常见错误
词源解说

adv.(副词)

often的基本意思是“常常,经常”,主要修饰动词,也可修饰其他副词或形容词,指某件事情在不同场合下屡次发生,具体的时间意味不强。有时often还表示“在许多场合下”。可用于一般时态,也可用于完成体。
often一般位于实义动词之前,而位于to be、情态动词或(第一个)助动词之后。有时为了加强语气, often也可以放在系动词之前,此时作谓语的系动词要重读。
often有时也可放在句末。如果句子相当短,可将often放在句末,为了加强语气或对比,有时可以移至句首,这时常常引起主谓倒装(非正式语体中也可不倒装)。
用于疑问句或否定句中, often可以用作表语。
often在用于询问“隔多长时间一次”或“多少次”时,常用于how often短语。

adv.(副词)

often, always, sometimes, usually: 这四个词意思相近。其区别是：
1.表示的频率不同。例如：
He comes to school on Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday and even on Sunday.我们可说：He always goes to school.always表示的频率是100%。
He comes to school on Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday and Friday.我们可说：He usually goes to school.usually表示的频率是90%。
He comes to school on Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday and Thursday.我们可说：He often goes to school.often表示的频率是60%。
He comes to school on Monday and Thursday.我们可以说He sometimes goes to school.sometimes表示的频率是20%。
2.always的反义词是never; often的反义词是seldom; usually的反义词是occasionally, sometimes的反义词是always。

adv.(副词)

误 I often made spelling mistakes in English class yesterday.

正 I made spelling mistakes in English class several times yesterday.

析 often通常不与其他表示时间的词(如yesterday)出现在同一句子中,因为often表示“不同场合下常常…”,而不表示“同一场合下常常…”。

误 He travels often abroad for business.

正 He often travels abroad for business.

析 often一般放在行为动词之前,系动词、助动词或情态动词之后,但在强调系动词、助动词或情态动词时例外。

误 How long do you write to your parents?

正 How often do you write to your parents?

析 how long指“行为持续的时间”,而how often则表示“多久发生一次”,即某种行为发生的频率。

☆ 直接源自古英语的oft，意为经常。
