 Re: what is the different " Used to and Would "
"Would" is used for any repeated action in the past. "Used to" is for past habits which continued for a long time.
There were telling signs that he'd had too much to drink that night. On finishing his beer, he would stumble to the bar and order another. (The action was repeated, but only on that one night, so we can't say "used to".)
I remember Mac. He used to come here every Friday and order a pint of bitter and, for some reason, a lemon and lime. (This was Mac's usual habit, probably over a period of many years.) |
