Hi, No. (iii) would work in the sentence. The reason (ii) won't work is the same reason (iv) would not work; you wouldn't say that someone rarely did something everyday , just like you wouldn't with never .
- Hi, No.
- (iii) would work in the sentence.
- The reason (ii) won't work is the same reason (iv) would not work; you wouldn't say that someone rarely did something everyday , just like you wouldn't with never .
- It is okay though to say that someone would cycle everyday or that they used to cycle everyday ...
- however, unless it was a typing mistake, (i) would not be correct because it is use to , and that does not work; it must be use d to in order for that one to work.
