Usage notes
- Use costantemente for ongoing frequency or continuity; continuamente often stresses interruption or nonstop repetition more strongly.
- With verbs like migliorare, cambiare, crescere, it sounds natural in formal and neutral contexts: migliora costantemente.
- Don't place it between auxiliary and past participle in basic learner Italian; safer positions are before the verb or after the participle.
