"Used to"
Negative form
So, for negative sentences, the "use to" will be
preceded by the auxiliary "did not" and this in
turn will be preceded by the pronoun or subject
of the sentence, while in interrogative
sentences, it will be the auxiliary "Did" at the
beginning of the sentence, followed by the
pronoun or subject and, of course, the base
form of the main verb.
