Frequency Adverb Grammar
Frequency adverbs are added to a sentence to describe how often you do something.
I sometimes go to a coffee shop.
私はときどききっさてんに行きます。
Negative frequency adverbs anticipate a negative verb form at the end of the sentence. Therefore, you cannot use ぜんぜん or あまり with a positive verb form such as ます to communicate their meanings here. They would have to be used with ません!!
Ie. 私は全然テレビを見ません。
I do not watch TV at all.
