Hello,

I just wanted some clarification on the word "often." Is it correct that often does not mean most? Just a quick question. Thank you!

"Often" is similar to "many" in that neither means "most." If there were other contextual information, you could have situations where "often" means "most," but you'd need that info before making that determination.

As an aside, "more often than not" would mean most.

Thanks!
