    While grammatically correct, ‘frequentemente’ sounds more formal; native speakers prefer ‘com frequência’ in casual speech.

  • Experimento receitas nova com frequência.

    The adjective must agree in number with the noun; ‘receitas’ is plural, so the adjective must be ‘novas’.

    Do not use the infinitive after the subject; you need the conjugated form ‘experimento’.
