直播的好處就真的是 YouTube 上傳超級宇宙無敵快。而且潔西也不會一直重錄，不然真的很機車的潔西有時候錄到一半很不滿意，都三十分鐘了還重錄，真的是很暈倒。

其實這文法真的不難，不知道為什麼很多人一直弄不清楚一直問問題，可能是因為老師當習慣了，大部分都覺得不難，其實對學生來講可能容易弄混淆。大概前面幾分鐘就可以了解大概的文法，中間講很多的例子，然後可以自己先做下面的翻譯練習再對答案，或者是做完後看影片的 45分的地方開始講解答案。先這樣囉。晚安睡覺去。補光棍節快樂！ Happy Singles Day!

used to do 跟 be used to doing 的用法與不同

這兩個片語的用法很多人常常會弄混淆，因為有點像，但是實際上用法跟動詞的接續都是不同的。先看一下下面這段文字：

 

I used to stay up late until 2 or 3 a.m.  However, I started a new job two months ago, and now I have to get to work at 7 a.m. At first, I had a difficult time getting up early, but now I’m used to getting up early.

 

我以前都熬夜到凌晨兩三點。然而，在兩個月前我有了個新工作，現在我必須要七點上班。剛開始，我很難早起，但是現在我已經習慣於早起。

 

 

把大家弄的霧傻傻的 used to do 跟 be used to doing 是兩個長的很像的片語，很多人都會弄混淆。 I used to get up early. 跟 I’m used to getting up early. 這兩句的意思差很多喔。

 

I used to get up early. 這句的意思是我過去經常早起。但是可能我現在早上都沒課，所以都不早起了。用來表示過去經常做的事現在不這麼做了，是過去簡單式，用來表示過去的習慣，過去的事實，但現在不是這樣了。中文說過去常…，過去曾經…，從前…等。這句的 used to 的 to 是不定詞，所以這個用法後面加的是動詞原型。

 

I used to wear contact lenses.  contacts

I used to go to a pub every weekend.

I used to like horror movies, but I never watch them now.

In the past, I often wear contact lenses. I don’t wear contact lenses anymore.

I usually wear contacts.

 

I’m used to getting up early. 這句的意思是我習慣了早起。這個句型用在可能一開始不熟，不習慣的事情，因為常做或者是時間久了的關係，慢慢熟悉，習慣了。 be動詞加上 used to 合起來的片語，可以用在不同時態，這裏的 to 是介系詞，介系詞後面一定要加名詞，所以面要加的是動詞原型加上 ing 的動名詞。也可以加名詞。

be afraid of , be good at, I’m good at cooking.

 

 

I’m used to using a desktop computer now.  notebook computer, laptop

I’m used to getting up early on Sunday morning

I wasn’t used to using a desktop computer.

I wasn’t used to getting up early on Sunday morning.

 

I often talk in public. I don’t mind talking in public because I have taught for 15 years. Now I’m used to it. I’m used to talking in public.

 

 

We can also use get used to to talk about things become more familiar.

It was difficult at first, but I soon got used to getting up early.

Because I have to teach on Sunday morning, I had to get used to getting up early.

 

 

簡單來說是這樣，但是語言這種東西通常是很難說得懂解釋的清楚的，哈哈，所以最好的方式就是記住用法，不要光去背片語的中文意思，過去習慣於，現在習慣於，這樣其實很容易混淆，最好的方式就是多閱讀一些例子，真正理解後，自己多寫多練習，多看文章裡面怎麼用，熟能生巧  Practice makes perfect. 真的是一個討厭的事實，不過就是真的就是多練習，就會比較有概念囉，加油:)

 

 

A

S + used to + V1：曾經…, 從前…, 過去經常

用來表達過去的習慣或過去的狀況，但是現在已經不存在了，從前固定做某件事，經常性的動作，但是現在不做了，後面接的是動詞原形。假如要表示現在的習慣會用現在簡單式。

這個句型是： 主詞 ＋ used to ＋ 動詞原型 (base form/V1)

 

used 在這裡是 use 的過去式 used

 

to 在這裡是不定詞的 to ，所以後面要加動詞原型

 

used to 在這裡指的是過去經常性的動作或事實或習慣等，兩個字不可以拆開

 

I used to drive to work every day, but these days I usually go by bike.

我從前每天開車上班，但是最近我通常都騎腳踏車。(現在不開車了)

 

We used to live in a small village, but now we live in Taipei.

我們從前住在一個小村莊，但是我們現在住台北。(現在不住小村莊)

 

表達過去習慣的used to 句型

 

表示過去經常性動作或習慣或狀態，現在已經沒有這樣的習慣或狀態。

 

句型：主詞＋used to＋動詞原形 (S + used to + V1)

 

1. 肯定句 S + used to + V1：過去曾經…

 

He used to play basketball five days a week before he hurt his leg.

這裏從前有一個小學，但是他們把它拆了。

 

I used to go to the gym three times a week.

我從前一個星期去三次健身房。

 

 

因為這裡是表示過去的習慣或經常做的事，但是現在不做了，所以常會有跟現在的比較。假如現在還這麼做的話就不用 used to +V1 這個用法，就會用現在簡單式表示。

 

I go to the gym three times a week.

我一個星期上三次健身房。

 

 

 

2. 否定句 S + didn’t use to + V1 / S + didn’t used to + V1

 

否定句，過去不做某件事，除了用 never 的用法，也可以用助動詞 did 加上 not ，口語多用 didn’t 加上原型的 use 來表示否定。 never used to do

主詞 + be動詞 + used to + V-ing (動詞原型加上ing 的動名詞) 或名詞的這個句型中文意思是某件事變得熟悉，不再陌生。可能到一個新地方，熟悉新的事物。或者做一些過去沒有做的事情，所以現在已經習慣了某事。
