Subject: How Frequent is the Expression of Frequency?

 
In japan, we are not so conscious that how the adverbs of use that express
frequency. However, in English vocaburary, adverbs of expressing frequency is
a lot, so we want to ask you some questions.  

We learn the frequency of adverbs like belows.

[100%] always
[90%] nearly always
[80%] usually/regulary
[60%] often/frequenly
[50%] sometimes
[30%] occasionally
[20%] seldom/ rarely 
[10%] hardly ever/scarcely ever
[0%] never

Based on the above,

(a)I often take a walk in the morning. 

In this situation, how many times do I take a walk per a month?

In addition to this, 

(b)I usually take a walk in the morning.

In this situation, how many times do I take a walk per a month?

Please answer questionnaire below.
