O que significa every once in a while ?
- Inglês (RU)
It is another way to say sometimes.
For example, if you say 'I go cycling every once in a while' it is similar to 'sometimes I go cycling', or you could also say 'Now and then I go cycling'. It's a more specific and poetic way of saying it.
It also makes sense literally. A 'while' is generally a long amount of time, so if you do something every 'once' in a 'while' it means you do it occasionally. Hope that helps 😊
