periodically

adverb peh-ree-oh-dee-KAH-men-teh Rare

Usage Note

Periodicamente modifies verbs to indicate that an action recurs at regular intervals. It is formed from the adjective periodico plus the adverbial suffix -mente, which in Italian always attaches to the feminine form of the adjective: periodica + -mente. A useful synonym is regolarmente ('regularly'), though that stresses regularity rather than the periodic rhythm.

Examples

"Periodicamente controlliamo i dati."
