Advanced Description
This is is an experimental feature. Please report any issues.Oft is a commonly used word in the German language and is often used to describe how frequently something occurs. It can be used in both formal and informal contexts, and is considered a standard part of everyday vocabulary.
In terms of usage, oft can be placed before or after the verb in a sentence. For example, 'Ich gehe oft ins Kino' (I often go to the cinema) and 'Ich spiele Tennis oft' (I play tennis often) are both correct ways to use the adverb.
It's important to note that while oft can be translated to 'often' in English, it doesn't always have the same frequency as the English word. In some cases, oft may indicate a higher frequency than what would be implied by 'often', while in other cases it may indicate a lower frequency.
