 Would,used to and get used to: B2-intermediate: 馃摎



At a B2 intermediate level, used to describes past habits or states that no longer happen, while would is used specifically for repeated, voluntary actions in the past. Get used to refers to the process of becoming accustomed to something new or unfamiliar, usually followed by an -ing verb or noun. 




Key Differences and Usage: 


* Used to (+ Infinitive): Describes past states (e.g., I used to live there) and actions that are no longer true. It can be used in negative/question forms (Didn't use to).

* Would (+ Infinitive): Only describes repeated, habitual actions in the past. It is more formal, often used in storytelling, and cannot be used for past states (e.g., Incorrect: I would be a teacher).

* Be used to (+ -ing/Noun): Means something is already familiar or normal; you are accustomed to it.

* Get used to (+ -ing/Noun): Emphasizes the process of adapting to something new. 




Examples: 

* Used to: I used to live in London when I was young.


* Would: Every summer, we would go to the beach.


* Get used to: I am finding this new job hard, but I'll get used to the early mornings.

* Be used to: Now I am used to the cold weather. 


Note: At B2, it is important to avoid using "would" for past states (e.g., feelings or existence) and to use "get used to" to describe the transition period.
