Hello, everybody!
I thought I knew the difference between these two categories until I had been asked to explain it.
1) She used to have a car.
2) She had a car.
Used to implies that she definitely doesn't have a car now.
But past simple tense also describes some past events or states without continuation to present, doesn't it?
Isn't the meaning of used to have in this case the same as of had ?
