Used to
Benutze used to + Grundform, um von vergangenen Gewohnheiten und Zuständen zu sprechen, die nicht mehr wahr sind: I used to play football every weekend. There used to be a bakery here.
- In Fragen und Verneinungen zeigt did bereits die Vergangenheit an, deshalb schreibt man use to ohne -d: Did you use to live here? She didn't use to like coffee.
- never used to ist ebenfalls üblich: He never used to like cold weather.
- Für die Gegenwart benutzt man das Simple Present: I play tennis now.
Verwechsle es nicht mit be used to + Nomen / -ing, was bedeutet, an etwas gewöhnt zu sein: I'm used to the noise. She is used to sleeping during the day. get used to bedeutet sich an etwas gewöhnen: I'm getting used to my new job.
Beispiele
- I used to walk to school every day.
- There used to be a park here.
- Did you use to have a pet?
- She didn't use to drink tea.
- I'm used to working late.
