Dalam bahasa Indonesia, ” Used to” sering diterjemahkan menjadi “dulu sering” atau “dulu pernah”. Rumus penggunaan “Used to” adalah setelah kata ini harus diikuti oleh “Verb 1″. Perhatikan contoh berikut.
- I used to smoke a packet a day but I stopped two years ago.
- Ben used to travel a lot in his job but now, since his promotion, he doesn’t.
- I used to drive to work but now I take the bus.
- I didn’t used to go by car to school.
- Did you use to swim regularly when you was a child?
- There used to be a cinema in the town but now there isn’t.
- She used to have really long hair but she’s had it all cut off.
- I didn’t use to like him but now I do.
Sedangkan [S + BE + USED TO + VING]
bermakna 'terbiasa' (tidak biasa --> adaptasi --> terbiasa)
Contoh, 'when i first came to indonesia, i didn't like spicy
food. But now, i am used to eating it
Kalimat tersebut menyatakan bahwa dulu saya
tidak suka makanan pedas. Setelah mencoba berkali-kali, akhirnya menjadi biasa
