Bonjour Diana, «So couramment goes in front of the noun?» In a word, no. A general rule of thumb is this: an adverb follows the verb. Position of French Adverbs - general rule Here's the take away from this lesson: Notice that in simple sentences, adverbs are placed right after the verb. You will notice that this states in simple sentences, and of course like everything else in français, there are exceptions which is my reasoning for stating that it is a general rule of thumb.

For example He speaks French fluently. = Il parle francais couramment and He is fluent = Il parle couramment. Beverley

HI again, I think there may be a similar example somewhere on your site, but I can't find it, so I took this from somewhere else. "Cette expression française qui date du dix-neuvième siècle est couramment utilisée de nos jours. " Couramment is before the verb, and the meaning changes.

Actually couramment is in the middle of the compound verb structure "est utilisée"

Comme d'habitude avec des adverbes?

Merci, Beverley.
