The hemisphere is irrelevant. Lunar eclipses happen, over the long run, about one and a half times a year or so for partial or total lunar eclipses. (if we add penumbral eclipses also, they're a bit more common, but you need special equipment to detect a penumbral eclipse... you can't really tell visually).
Lunar eclipses are visible from the entire dark half of the Earth, while solar eclipses are visible only along a narrow path. This makes it SEEM as if solar eclipses are rare, but they are only rare for a specific location.
The NASA Eclipse Web Page has a listing of all eclipses from 2000 BCE to 3000 AD.
Because a lunar eclipse lasts for some time, a bit over half the Earth gets to see any given one. You can reasonably expect to see slightly under one lunar eclipse per year.
Lunar eclipses and solar eclipses happen EQUALLY often; about two of each kind per year. However, solar eclipses are visible only across a small path on the Earth, while lunar eclipses are visible from the entire nighttime hemisphere of the planet.
Because for any given point on Earth, lunar eclipses are visible more often than solar eclipses.
During the 20th Century, there were 228 solar eclipses and 229 lunar ones, which is about as equal as you can get. But lunar eclipses are visible over a wider area. So if you stay in one place, you're more likely to see lunar eclipses more often than solar ones.
There are between 1 and 4 lunar eclipses per year. Between the years 1901 and 2000, the average was 2.29 of them each year.
There are two main types of eclipses: solar and lunar. Lunar eclipses occur every 6 months. Solar eclipses occur 2-5 times per year. Eclipses can be partial or total. Partial eclipse covers only part of the sun or moon, while total covers the full entity.

Yes
There are most often two lunar eclipses each year (see the link below for a timetable). In 2013 the lunar eclipses will not be very dramatic.
partial
Earth's shadow is bigger comoared to the moons

i believe evry 1oo years but I'm not sure
In general, there are two lunar eclipses and two solar eclipses each year. On average, about half are total and half are partial, so you can expect, over a span of years, to see one total lunar eclipse every other year. There are sometimes cycles of eclipses. In 2014-2015, there will be four sequential total lunar eclipses, with no partial eclipses in between; this cycle is called a "tetrad" and it isn't all that unusual. There will be eight such tetrads in the 21st century; this will be the second tetrad of the century.
Every year there are at least two lunar eclipses, although total lunar eclipses are significantly less common.There was a total eclipse of the Moon on December 21, 2010The next total eclipse of the Moon will occur on June 15, 2011.
