“Used to” is the same for all subjects, and you follow it with the infinitive “to”: “I / You / He / She / We
/
They used to smoke.”
To make the negative, use “didn’t” + used + to + verb. (Remove the final /d/ ending from “used”.)
An example for a habit: “He used to go on holiday to Scotland every year” (but he doesn’t now)
He used to smoke.”
To make the question, use “did” as the auxiliary, and take the final /d/ ending
off “used”:
Be used to + doing
The form is subject + verb to be + used to + verb in the ing form / noun
Examples:
“I am / was used to studying English every day.”
“I am used to his jokes.” (example with a noun)
“You are / were used to studying English every day.”
“He is / was used to studying English every day.”
You can change the verb “to be” with the verb “get” to talk about the process of becoming used to
something (rather than the state of being used to something).
“If you live in England, you will get used to driving on the left!” (= it will no longer be a problem
for you)
“He finally got used to the winter weather.”
Don’t make the mistake of combining both forms to make an ungrammatical sentence like “I am
used to study.”
