Learning Goals

At the end of this lesson you should be able to:

• talk about events in the past.
• make arrangements during a conversation.
  
• exchange information in a conversation.

Grammar: Talking about habits

When you talk about things in the past that always happened, but don’t happen anymore, you can use:

‘used to’ + infinitive: We used to live in New York when I was a kid.

‘would’: Every Saturday I would go on a long bike ride.

past simple: We went to the same beach every summer.

Grammar: talking about habits

used to + infinitive

• for past states (toestanden) that are not true anymore:

We used to live in New York when I was a kid.

• for past habits (gewoontes) that don’t happen anymore:
  

I used to go swimming every Thursday when I was at school.

would

• for past habits (gewoontes) that you don’t have any more:
  

Every Saturday I would go on a long bike ride.

‘Would’ for past habits is more formal than ‘used to’.

You don't use ‘would’ for past habits in a negative or question form.

Grammar: talking about habits

Past simple

• for past states and habits. This tells the other person that you no longer do a certain thing, go to a certain place, etc.
  

We went to the same beach every summer.

• if something happened only once, so you don’t describe a habit or a state:
  

I went to Pakistan in 2019.
