🕒 The 'Every Day' Pattern

In the text, we see words that describe how often something happens. This is a key step for A2 learners to describe their own lives.

The Pattern: Every + Time PeriodAction

Examples from the text:

  • Every day → Two quizzes
  • Every weekday → Newsletter

How to use this in your life: If you want to say you do something regularly, just use Every:

  • Every morning → I drink coffee.
  • Every Monday → I go to the gym.
  • Every year → I visit my family.

Quick Tip: Notice that we don't say "on every day." We just say "every day."
