Grammar – USED TO
Read the conversation below. Does Kim look the same now as she did in high school?
Bonnie: Is this your high school yearbook?
Kim: Yeah. Here’s my senior picture.
Bonnie: That’s you? No way! You used to have beautiful long hair!
Kim: Yeah, I used to play in a band and it was cool to have long hair.
Bonnie: Did you use to play at parties?
Kim: Yeah, parties, and sometimes school events!
Bonnie: That’s so cool!
Kim: Well, we weren’t that great. I mean, we didn’t use to give concerts.
Read the conversation above again. Check the correct option:
1. Used to refers to:
a. things that were true in the past and are still true in the present.
b. things that were true in the past but are not true in the present.
Big - ugly - heavy - pink - beautiful - long - red - brown - square - short - attractive - pretty
fantastic - skinny - tall - black - handsome - curly - straight - calm - peaceful - talkative
cute - serious - funny - smart - intelligent - interesting - boring - patient - creative
A forma used + to pode ser classificada também como uma expressão ou um phrasal verb, com a função de colocar
uma ação no passado. É o nosso tão comum “costumava”. Eu poderia dizer, por exemplo (for instance): Eu
costumava jogar futebol. Em Inglês essa frase fica assim “I used to play soccer“. A estrutura de uma oração simples
com o used to é Pronome + used to + Verbo. Confira abaixo exemplo:
 I used to study in the library. (Eu costumava estudar na biblioteca)
 I used to play the guitar. (Eu costumava tocar violão)
