Used to do and Be used to
What is the rule for distinguishing between ‘used to do’ and ‘be used to’?
Answer: ‘Used to do’ means something that you did in the past, possibly on a regular basis, and no longer do.
Example: I used to knit when my children were little.- Я вязала, когда мои дети были маленькими.
‘Be used to’ means to be or become familiar with.
Example: You will be used to eating chillies soon.- Скоро ты привыкнешь есть чили.
We sometimes replace ‘be’ with ‘get’.
Example: I am getting used to your company.- Я привыкаю к твоей компании.
