Explanation

The Japanese adverb '度々 (たびたび)' means 'often' or 'frequently'. It is used to describe actions or events that occur repeatedly or many times. This word carries a nuance of something happening multiple times, but not necessarily in a regular or predictable pattern. It is commonly used in both formal and informal contexts. Example sentences: He often visits this café「彼は度々このカフェを訪れる」(かれはたびたびこのカフェをおとずれる). I often receive emails from her「私は度々彼女からメールをもらう」(わたしはたびたびかのじょからメールをもらう). Note that '度々' can sometimes imply a sense of recurrence that might be slightly unexpected or noteworthy.
