Definition
每每 is a literary adverb meaning 'often' or 'invariably', used in formal or written Chinese to describe habitual or recurring actions. It carries a more refined tone than the everyday 经常 (jīngcháng) and is common in essays, narratives, and classical-style writing. You can use it to emphasize that something happens repeatedly in the past or in a general pattern.
