used to (eskiden ... -erdi)

Eskiden doğru olan ama artık olmayan şeyler: "Eskiden sigara içerdim" gibi cümleler used to ile nasıl kurulur? (used to)

Özetle

Something was true in the past, but is not true now.

Yapısı

+I used to smoke.
−I didn't use to smoke.
?Did you use to smoke?

Kurallar

  • Always used to + base verb.
  • In questions and negatives it becomes use to (no -d), because did already shows the past.

Örnek cümleler

  • I used to live in a small village.
  • She didn't use to like coffee.

Sık yapılan hatalar

  • ✗ I didn't used to go.✓ I didn't use to go.
  • ✗ I am used to smoke.✓ I used to smoke.

Akılda kalsın

Same rule as the past simple: did takes the past, so the verb goes back to base form.
