Time phrases cannot go between the subject and the verb
時間短語不能位于主語和謂語動詞之間
for example
例如
We every day go swimming is incorrect
We every day go swimming是不正確的
Instead, we can say
相反,我可以說
We go swimming every day
We go swimming every day
The meaning is stressed
如果把它放在句首
if it is placed at the beginning of a sentence
那么它就表示強調意義
Every day we go swimming
Every day we go swimming

我們會用到其它時間短語包括every"on" 和 "at"
