Used to-past simple USED TO • We use 'used to' for something that happened regularly in the past, but no longer happens. • e.g. I used to drive to work, but now I take the bus. • We also use it for something that was true but no longer is. • e.g. There used to be a cinema in the town, but now there isn't. Past Simple We use Past Simple to talk about something that we did at a specific time in the past In the past simple we put –ed at the end of the verb e.g. Play- played Be careful! Some verbs are irregular e.g. take-took "Used to" vs. Simple Past We use "Used to" + bare infinitive to talk about past habits, past facts and past states; We can replace “used to”+ bare infinitive with past simple without changing the meaning. BUT… When we refer to something that we did at a specific time in the past we use PAST SIMPLE • e.g. My friend, Susan, wore a beautiful silk shirt at the party lest night. AND NOW… IT’S TIME FOR EXERCISES Correct the sentences • I used to worked in the Twin Towers • Do you used to leave the classroom at 4:00 pm? • He used to wrote a lot • Did she used to eat three times a day ?
