STAGE 1 LEARNING

Topic: Used to.

Used to is a modal verb that we use to talk about things that happened in past, but are not happening in present. In other words, used to is used to talk about repeated actions in past.

Used to = Solía, solías, solían, solíamos (Dependiendo del subject)

Look at the following examples:

David used to play soccer when he was a kid. / David solía jugar futbol cuando era niño.

Carmen used to play the guitar long time ago. / Carmen solía tocar la guitarra hace mucho tiempo.

The teacher used to live in that house / El profesor solía vivir en esa casa

Have you noticed something curious about used to?
YES, used to always is placed before a verb in base form.

So, used to has 3 different forms

• POSITIVE FORM +
• NEGATIVE FOR - 
• INTERROGATIVE FORM ?

Used to (POSITIVE +) 

I /used to /read /a lot of books
Subject/Used to/Verb (base)/Complement

My mother /used to /clean /my bedroom
Subject/Used to/Verb (base)/Complement

Josimar and Rafael /used to /be /best friends in the school
Subject/Used to/Verb (base)/Complement

Used to (NEGATIVE -) 

I /did not /use to /read /a lot of books
Subject/Did not/Use to/Verb (base)/Complement

My mother /did not /use to /clean /my bedroom
Subject/Did not/Use to/Verb (base)/Complement

Josimar and Rafael /did not /use to /be /best friends in the school
Subject/Did not/Use to/Verb (base)/Complement

*You use the auxiliary DID NOT / DIDN'T
*Because we are using DID, you have to write USE TO not USED TO 

Used to (INTERROGATIVE ?)

Did /I /use to /read /a lot of books/?
Aux. Did/Subject/Use to/Verb (Base form)/Complement/?

Did /my mother /use to /clean /my bedroom/?
Aux. Did/Subject/Use to/Verb (Base form)/Complement/?

Did /Josimar and Rafael /use to /be /best friends/?
Aux. Did/Subject/Use to/Verb (Base form)/Complement/?

*You use the auxiliary DID NOT / DIDN'T
*Because we are using DID, you have to write USE TO not USED TO
