How to use it

'Comúnmente' means commonly — in a way that is usual or widespread. Note the accent on the ú. It modifies verbs and adjectives to indicate frequency of occurrence or general practice. Distinguish from 'habitualmente' (habitually/regularly) and 'generalmente' (generally).

Common mistake

Don't omit the accent on the ú — 'comunmente' without accent is a spelling error; the stress falls on the ú.
