老师再三提醒我们。

When to use Frequency Adverbs 一再 and 再三

Read repeatedly + verb as a sentence tool, not just as vocabulary. First locate the main action or claim, then ask what 再三 adds to it.

我再三考虑以后才决定。

I decided only after considering it again and again.

请再三检查答案。

Please check the answers again and again.

Common traps

  • Do not translate repeatedly + verb mechanically from English; check the Chinese word order first.
  • Keep 再三 close to the part of the sentence it controls.
  • Do not overuse the pattern in every sentence; use it when it adds a clear role.

Targeted drill

Practice this exact pattern before moving on.
