Used To, Didn't Use To - Past Habits and States: What Music To Like When You Were A Child?

The document provides examples of how to use "used to" and "didn't/did not use to" to talk about past habits and states. It explains that "used to" refers to a habitual action in the past, while "didn't/did not use to" negates that. Examples are given like "I used to ride my bike when I was young" and "We were not used to stay at home." The document also contrasts using "used to" with simple past tense verbs and provides exercises for learners to practice using these structures correctly.
