1 Used to
We use used to/ didn’t use to + base form to talk about past habits or repeated actions or situations that have changed.
- Attention!!!!! used to DOES NOT exist in the simple present (I use to study at night XXXXX). For present habits, we use usually + simple present (I usually study at night)
- For action verbs, we can replace used to with the word would.
Example:
When I was a child I used to play video games every day = When I was a child I would play video games every day.
