Egy érdekes frázis, mely múltbeli szokást fejez ki.

Például:

I used to drink Bombay Gin, but now I only drink Kalumba.

= Régen ittam Bombay gint, de ma már csak Kalumbát iszom.

Used to

Figyelj, hogy ilyen értelemben is "régi szokásra" vonatkozik:

He used to be my friend. = Ő régen a barátom volt.

Mi jellemzően plusz szavak beiktatásával oldjuk meg azt, amit az angol ezzel: régen, szoktam (volt)...

Translate the following sentences that include 'used to' phrases!

Ő régen a Fradiban focizott, de már túl öreg.

Amikor gyerek voltam, minden évben eljártunk Hajdúszoboszlóra.

Régen nem voltak ilyen zsúfoltak az utak mint manapság.
