constantly
Every single moment
Constantly means without stopping or with very frequent repetition.
If something happens constantly, it either never ceases or occurs so often that it feels uninterrupted: The baby was constantly crying.
The word can describe genuine continuity—a heart constantly beats—or serve as hyperbole for mere frequency: She's constantly on her phone.
Constantly often carries a tone of complaint or exasperation when describing repeated behavior.
