Dear Student,
When dealing with the adverbs of time and frequency, there is a bit of an overlap between a few words and their usage. The word 'daily' is one such word.
Adverbs of time are used for denoting when a thing is to happen while the Adverbs of frequency denote how frequently an action takes place. Following is the usage of the word 'daily' in both ways:
Adverb of time: The newspaper arrives daily.
Adverb of frequency: The doctor has advised him to brush his teeth twice daily.
Hope this helps to clear your doubt. For more queries to be answered, please keep blogging on the forum.
