The position of the adverb in a sentence
An adverb of frequency goes after the verb To Be.
Subject+to be+adverb
When we use an auxiliary verb (have, will, must, might, could, would, can, etc.), the adverb is placed between the auxiliary and the main verb. This is also true for to be.
Subject++auxiliary+adverb+main verb
An adverb of frequency goes before a main verb (except with To Be).
