used to 的否定和疑問的形式

used to 的否定形式為 didn’t use to,若是要表達疑問要用 did you use to。used to 沒有現在式的形式。

Did you use to go to play basketball as a student? 你以前學生時去打籃球嗎?

be used to 的用法

用 be used to something/doing something 代表你已經習慣某件事或是習慣做某件事。或許一開始這是一件新奇的,奇怪的、或是困難的事,但你已經做了一段時間所以不再感到新奇、奇怪或是困難。be used to 是一個狀態,所以 be 動詞不能用進行式,通常會用簡單式。
