Find a word related to S E L D O M

The idea is to find an English word (synonym –- antonym related to the word – S E L D O M (adverbio) and then write a simple sentence in English and Spanish for that word.

Or an unusual use of the word.

Example:

Seldom, if ever, should we accept the words of religious and political leaders at face value.

Rara vez, o nunca, nos debamos aceptar las palabras de los líderes religiosos y políticos a su valor nominal.

But one word should be heard today - Christmas.

Pero una palabra debe ser escuchada hoy - Navidad.

Pictures are a good idea.

This link might help you find some ideas.

We have no official corrector for this challenge yet.

I think I can manage to be the corrector for the English. smile ?

Please encourage everyone by voting for them and me. wink

This was the previous challenge.

Tonight my husband and I will share a bottle of champagne to celebrate the holiday: an infrequent treat enjoyed only on special occasions.

on occasion, de vez en cuando

Sólo como carne de res de vez en cuando, pero hoy sería una de las veces, y ya he preparado el asado de costilla con especias, y cuando regresemos de la casa de nuestros amigos, lo pondré en el horno.

I only eat beef on occasion, but today will be one of those occasiones, and I have already rubbed the prime rib roast with spices, and when we get back from our friend's house, I will put it in the oven.

occasionally - ocasionalmente, de vez en cuando

Occasionally, we agree, and occasionally we disagree.
