'regularly' is the definition.
(often)

'going round by foot' is the wordplay.
'going round' becomes 'o' (round can mean a round object. I am not sure about the 'going' bit.).
'by' says to put letters next to each other.
'foot' becomes 'ft' (abbreviation).
'o'+'ft'='OFT'

Can you help me to learn more?
