INGLES: Uso de (USED TO) TEORIA Y PRACTICA.

Used To 

Hay dos formas de traducir esta expresión: Solía y Acostumbraba a. Ambas opciones significan lo mismo.

1. Oraciones afirmativas:

Cuando usamos USED TO en frases afirmativas hablamos de una acción que ocurría como un hábito o un estado en el pasado, pero en el presente esa acción ya no ocurre o no es verdadera.  

La estructura es: Sujeto + used to + verbo con complemento

• I used to talk to my brother almost every day, but now he lives in Europe. / Solía hablar con mi hermano casi todos los días, pero ahora él vive en Europa.
• They used to drink orange juice before breakfast, but now they can't do that. / Acostumbraban a tomar jugo de naranja antes del desayuno, pero ahora no pueden hacer eso.

2. Frases negativas:

En negativo hablamos de una acción que no solía ocurrir en el pasado, pero que ahora es usual o verdadera.

La estructura es: Sujeto + didn't use to + verbo con complemento

• She didn't use to write essays, but now she writes 2 essays every week. / No solía escribir ensayos, pero ahora escribe 2 ensayos cada semana.
• We didn't use to dance salsa, but now we go to salsa clubs on Saturdays. / No solíamos bailar salsa, pero ahora vamos a clubes de salsa los sábados.  

3. Preguntas:

Podemos también preguntar los que alguien solía o acostumbraba a hacer en el pasado. Para el interrogativo usamos el auxiliar DID al inicio de la oración seguido del sujeto.

Estructura: Did + sujeto + use to + verbo más complemento?

• Did you use to draw when you were at elementary school? / ¿Solías dibujar cuando estabas en la escuela primaria?
• Did Ralph use to run as fast as he runs now? / ¿Ralph solía correr tan rápido como corre ahora?

Para responder usamos el auxiliar DID.

• Did you use to watch horror movies alone when you were a kid? / ¿Solías ver películas de terror solo cuando eras niño?

Yes, I did / Sí
No, I didn't / No
