Seldomly is not a word. It might not sound right but it is correct to say "I seldom see my neighbour," or "I seldom go to the shops." Seldom is an adverb, it doesn't need -ly. Adverb: seldomly

Usage: non-standard

1. Not often

"we seldomly met"

No, "seldomly" is not a standard English word. The correct term to use in its place would be "seldom."
