I don't understand the use of menudo here because it means small and the question uses very often not very small. Can you explain this to me?

Use ofword Menudo
This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Muy vs Mucho in Spanish (intensifiers)"
Asked 2 years ago
Hola Patricia
The adjective "menudo" means "small", you are right. But here we are using "a menudo", which is an adverb meaning "often". That is the meaning in this sentence:
Alberto llora muy a menudo.
(Alberto cries very often.)
I hope this clarified it.
Saludos
Inma
