Difficult question, indeed, what is the question?
Your phraseology makes no sense, so i am taking a stab in the dark here and supposing that you want to know what seldom means. It means "rarely" or "occasionally". Seldom is the opposite to "Often".
If your question referred to something else, please ask your teachers to help construct sentences that have some sort of coherent meaning. Language is a tool to help you communicate, Writing and speaking gibberish only communicates your inability to verbally express yourself.

It's an adverb. It modifies (adds information to) a verb.

I seldom see my friend. (see...how? seldom = rarely/not often)

You can also check www.m-w.com for help. However, many words can change, so you have to be careful.
(I sent an email. email=noun Will you email me? email=verb)

Hope it helps. I tried to be brief! ;)
