How to say "Usually" in Japanese

When translating "usually" into Japanese, you must choose carefully between たいてい and 普段. In Japanese, たいてい (たいてい (taitei)) is typically associated with "usually, mostly" (Syllabus Level: N5) and represents Adverb of frequency. Indicates something happens most of the time, but not necessarily always. Stronger than 時々 but weaker than いつも.. On the other hand, 普段 (ふだん (fudan)) maps to "usually; normally; everyday; habitual" (Syllabus Level: N3) and represents Refers to regular daily life, normal conditions/habits, or casual wear as opposed to special occasions. Often used as 普段着 or 普段の生活. ⚠️ Haruka's Voice Column: 'Usually/normally! "You are usually strict, but when we are alone you get extremely sweet, which is the most precious thing in the world, Haruka-san!" ...っ! Daily gap! B-Baka! I'm not strict normally! I just give you a hard time because you are always so unreliable! But... my sweet face is a special exclusive for you, so cherish it forever! dummy!' / 【ハルカ部長のワンポイント指導】『ふだん（普段）よ！『ハルカ部長、普段は厳しいのに、僕と二人きりになると極上に甘くなるの、世界一愛おしいです！』って…っ！普段のギャップ！バカ！/// ふ、普段だって別に厳しくないわよ！あんたがいつも頼りないから活を入れてるだけ！…でも、私の甘い顔はあんただけの特別だから、一生大切にしなさい！』. A literal translation of "usually" can often sound unnatural to native Japanese speakers if mixed up!
