As always as

1-She eats an apple as always as I do.
2-She eats an apple as usually as him.
Are they fine grammatically?
  

Top answer

No. You could say "She eats an apple as quickly as I do," because people might eat more quickly or less quickly than someone else. But "always" does not have degrees, so "as always as I do" is meaningless.

No. You could say "She eats an apple as quickly as I do," because people might eat more quickly or less quickly than someone else. But "always" does not have degrees, so "as always as I do" is meaningless. The same is true of "usually."

You could say "She eats apples as often /as I do/as he does."

These are OK:

1-She always eats an apple, as I do.
2-She usually eats an apple, as he does.
