本课语法
We use used to + infinitive for:
- things we did regularly in the past, but we don't do now.
- past facts which are no longer true.
I used to work at a restaurant, but now I work at a library.
NOT: I used to eat some cake last Saturday night. ('Saturday night' was just one time, so it was not something that happened regularly.)
Used to helps us to compare activities in the past and now. When we say used to, we do not do something now.
I used to work at a restaurant. I quit that job, and then got a new job at a library.
The different forms are:
positive: used to + infinitive
I used to live in Istanbul. Now I live in Columbia.
negatives & questions: did / did not / didn't + use to + infinitive
I didn't use to like sushi. Now I love it!Did you use to work in a restaurant?
