Grammar (Be + Used to + verb-ing)
2
We use 'be used to + verb-ing' to talk about things which feel normal for us or things that we are accustomed to:
I'm used to getting up early, so I don't mind doing it ( = getting up early is normal for me, it's what I usually do).
My little daughter is used to eating lunch at noon. So she was grumpy yesterday when we didn't eat until one.
3
Note that we make the negative or the question with the verb 'be' in the normal way. The 'used to' doesn't change:
Lucy isn't used to staying up late, so she's very tired today.
Are your children used to walking a lot?
4
We can also use 'be used to + noun', which has the same meaning:
I've lived in the UK almost all my life, so I'm used to rain (= rain is normal for me).
That football team always lose, so they're used to disappointment!
5
We can put the verb 'be' into any tense. So we can talk about things in the past or the future as well as the present using this expression:
It was difficult when I first started university, because I wasn't used to the amount of work we had to do.
Soon I'll be used to driving in London and I won't be so frightened!
