To be used to: rečenice, vježbe, testovi i primjeri

Be used to koristimo

Ako se used to odnosi na redovite radnje u prošlosti koje su već prestale, tada se konstrukcija be used to koristi za sadašnje navike.
Ona izražava radnju ili situaciju koja se za osobu smatra normalnom i poznatom.

Konstrukcija se može koristiti u sadašnjem, prošlom i budućem vremenu:
am / is / are used to, was / were used to, will be used to.
