This English lesson outlines the difference between “used to” and “I’m used to”. I’m used to hearing ESL students confusing these two, so watch this lesson and learn the difference!
Thanks James, it’s cool.
I didn’t know the form “I’m used to V-ing”.
Maxim
To maxim, i hope i can help you by this..
S + V2B (To Be) + used to + Ving
S = I, YOU, WE,THEY, HE, SHE, IT
Tobe : Am, Are , Is

Hi James,
I really confuse with the construction of:
S + V2B + used + to + Ving.
ex: I am used to working …
I thought after the preposition to, it was not correct to put Ving.
Could you be so kind to give more information about that?
Thanks in advance
Isaac
Did you watch the lesson or did you not? JAMES says you can say that sentence you putt… so that mean you can say it. Stupid!

am ,is ,are ….these are v2b
sabhi93
lol i agree with you.That’s what i also thought,I’m an English Lang student but I’m not quite satisfied with what my teacher teach me that’s why I’m here:)
ruby17
Thanks a lot for the explanation!!!!!
Really good and clear
andressa
I think this is the answer I was looking for
Why do we use -ing for a verb after be used to? Because we always use -ing for a verb after a preposition – and the to is a preposition
Isaac
I think the simplest answer it’s a special, an irregular case. You just have to learn it. :)
beaata
Hi , James . I’m Shun.There is something

Hi James
Today I have known a more way to use the verb Ving. The understanding of the using of the verb Ving is very difficult to me. I hope you can do other videos about this matter.
Your lesson are always very interesting and useful to me.

Dear James
I have written a few times for you but I hadn’t have a luck to talk to you yet.
Here is my question, please let me know.
Int he below paragraph why don’t we say ” students are confusing or confused) the word confusing is it a gerund or present participle (verbal). Verbals are the most confusing sections in English grammar.
This English lesson outlines the difference between “used to” and “I’m used to”. I’m used to hearing ESL students (confusing )these two, so watch this lesson and learn the difference!
I wanna ask you mr.james which tense used with ” I’m used ”
thanks

Please let me know if they are correct…….Thanks……

hey James! nice lesson but I have a question, why do you use the ING with the verbs if u have “TO” so the first thing I do to set a verb in gerund is eliminate the “to” so I think you must say I’m used to work everyday “not Working”

(1) I used to go to school earlier. –> I didn’t use to go to school earlier? or I used to not go to school earlier? (which one is correct?)
(2)I am used to dressing up–> I am not used to gressing up or I am used to not gressing up? (which one is correct?) Please kindly advise with thanks

I have a question, but first I’d like to say that I am loving the lessons, it is really helping me, however, you did one thing that I noticed I don’t know.
You put “to wearing”, and I couldn’t understand why, I would probably put “to wear”, could you explain me that.
Thank you for the lessons,

” Nice. Watching your videos helps me improve my accent. Thanks ”
It’s ” Help me” not ” Helps me”. Because ‘Videos’ is a plural, and the verb ‘Help’ refers to it.
Thanks :D

Hi James!
Can you please confirm the negative and interrogative forms of “I USED TO “? E.g I used to play => “I DIDN’T USED TO PLAY” and “DID YOU USED TO PLAY” ? Is it correct?
milly
I didn’t use to play football.
I usedn’t to… / I used not to…
Did you use to…? / Used you to…?
Didn’t you use to…? / Usedn’t you to …?
Note: take into account that ‘Did/Didn’t you use to’ is a more informal form, common in conversation.
AlessandroItaly
I want to answer your question, Milly. You can’t say “I DIDN’T USED TO PLAY”, the right form is “I DIDN’T USE TO PLAY”.and about the question “DID YOU USED TO PLAY” -it’s not correct, the right form is “DID YOU USE TO PLAY?”
Assol
James, you got me little confused with
I used to(present)
I thought it was past.
you lesson are funny, but if you can clear this to me, I will be tankful.

James.. I have to say that your lesson was fantastic.. I showed it to my students as an extra and follow up to our ‘used to’ lesson(teaching at a language school down under!) and they loved it. I was pleased to see someone else as silly as I sometimes can be.. it’s usually responded to in a positive way, and they all had a good chuckle at the underwear bit. I’m sure most of them will be trying out your website again, and just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration to use fun examples… loved it! cheers!

I have a question and please I would love if someone answers me… I already saw the video BUT there’s one doubt. Is it only with Ving? I think I’ve heard “I’m used to drink coffee” but I don’t know if that’s correct.
I have another doubt about how to use “I got used to”. PLEASE, I’D BE HAPPY IF SOMEONE FROM ENGVID ANSWERS ME. Thanks a lot
Cinderella
You might have heard wrong! They were probably saying “I used to drink coffee”. (In the past, I drank coffee regularly, but I don’t any more.)
As for “get used to”…it’s how you talk about adjusting to changes or new things:
– The train goes right by my new house. It’s really loud, but I’ve gotten used to it — I don’t even notice any more.
– The store isn’t carrying that kind of coffee any more. You’ll have to get used to going without it.
– My sister just got married. She’s still getting used to having her mother-in-law around.
engVid Moderator
Hi, thanks for your clear explanation which helps me to understand it much better. Yet, I still have a question for you, can I conclude that I’m used to is just the same as an expression to talk about habit we usually do at present?

I really enjoyed this class, thanks James keep doing it.

hi,
I never used to visit this site but now I feel like I’m starting to get used to it:)
Could you help me with some piece of grammar though? There’s a construction “be accustomed to”, it’s similar to “get used to” by meaning. But what’s it followed by: doing/to do? I’ve seen both variants a number of times so I’m a bit a t a loss:) TIA

Why ur lesson did not have quiz?
omidamiri
Hello there! well I’m new here, I’ve been studying and learning by myself for a long time, that’s how I found you on youtube :)
I Have a huge confusion about this topic, actually, the lesson has been really clear, but my question is related to what I’ve been hearing about the using of “be used to”. I’ve heard: “I’m used to study at night” – I’m pretty aware that we must use a gerund instead of an infinitive, but is there any exception in spoken English, informal English or Brithish English, in which it’s possible to use an infinitive with “Be Used to” like: “I’m used to exercise everyday”?
Thank you! :)
mabel29
Welcome! Thanks for commenting!
I hope another teacher chimes in, but here’s my guess — could you have been mishearing “I used to study at night”?
“I’m used to exercise every day” works if exercise is a noun — “I’m used to [getting] exercise every day”.

marekserwer
There “use to” and “used to” and there “use to get” and “used to get” and there “got” with word use & used. I get very confused the correct tense in writing and speaking?
Rican
So, is it wrong if I say “I’m used to make a cake” instead of “I’m used to making a cake?
It’s like mixing gerund with infinitive.
sebastian2013
Well, I think I grabbed your doubt. Usually the preposition to is followed by a verb in infinitive form according you said, but the expression “used to” always will have the “to” preposition like a phrasal verb. Actually, you must utilize ING form because the structure of sentence starts with Subject + verb to be. Unlike the sentence would have the same structure of the past actions that you don’t do anymore. Otherwise, how could we differentiate the two situations? I hope it can help you.
sgmmm
what happened with the quiz..

Thank again for awesome class, it was pretty useful, specially because I’ve noticed that the most all students had the same doubt in which I’d made mistake, where I work for, I have to deal with guys from the U.S.A. and others countries where English language is used a lot, anyway, I always thought that I heard from those guys the following form: I’m used to DO/TRY/SPEAK/SEE ….”, by now I can understand that I was completely wrong in my own interpretation of what they were saying!!!!
Thank a million for you all
Patricio da Silveira
Hi james
can you tell me how to use (used to) in a negative sentence. thanks
journec
The correct negative forms of these sentences are:
For “I’m used to + -ing”
I’M NOT USED TO standING here.
For “I used to”
I DIDN’T USE TO speak English.

I used to did karate
but nowadays Iam used to do kung fu

It’s almost OK. I the first pasrt of the sentence you have to use with V1 (first form of the verb) and the second part the ‘ING’ form. eg: I used to do katate but nowdays I’m used to doing kung fu. Basically, this meens I did carate regurally in the past, but these days I do kung fu regurally, now I’m familiar with kung fu.

Thank you so much for so useful lesson! I tried to understand this topic by myself but then I realized I do need the help of a wonderful teacher))) It seems, now I am pretty confident regarding these two phrases.

This man is outstanding.

The difference between a Past Simple (I used to) and a Present Continuous (I am studying) but this last tense like a tense with an adverb between the auxiliary “V2B” and the main verb, so it’s “I am STILL/ALREADY/JUST studying” or “I am USED TO studying” what it’s not new or strange. It’s a method to remember the difference of these tense for me. Good explanation and performance. Thanks teacher James from EngVid.

All the teachers are great, but this guy is my favorite by far. Haha! I love your lessons and you explain everything clearly. Congratulations and thanks for the lesson. However, is there any kind difference when the verb “to be” is in the past while using “I’m used to”? Thanks is advance!

Thanks James, it’s cool.
I didn’t know the form “I’m used to V-ing”.
To maxim, i hope i can help you by this..
S + V2B (To Be) + used to + Ving
S = I, YOU, WE,THEY, HE, SHE, IT
Tobe : Am, Are , Is
u r good girl
Hi James,
I really confuse with the construction of:
S + V2B + used + to + Ving.
ex: I am used to working …
I thought after the preposition to, it was not correct to put Ving.
Could you be so kind to give more information about that?
Thanks in advance
Did you watch the lesson or did you not? JAMES says you can say that sentence you putt… so that mean you can say it. Stupid!
DogMan — you can reply to other students, but please do not insult them! You make mistakes too; everyone does. There are even some mistakes in your comment here. Let’s all just be friends!
sorry your grammar is wrong…
I’m used to spending my nights learning English.
I feel the same :D
Thanks Dogman
i enjoyed learning english.thanks for the lesson
am ,is ,are ….these are v2b
lol i agree with you.That’s what i also thought,I’m an English Lang student but I’m not quite satisfied with what my teacher teach me that’s why I’m here:)
Thanks a lot for the explanation!!!!!
Really good and clear
I think this is the answer I was looking for
Why do we use -ing for a verb after be used to? Because we always use -ing for a verb after a preposition – and the to is a preposition
I think the simplest answer it’s a special, an irregular case. You just have to learn it. :)
Hi , James . I’m Shun.There is something
I really need to ask about.
I’m not pretty sure how the word ”used to”
So can you please define it for me ?
i used to work in a school……..is the statement wrong
thanks james. very helpful video
i am a broken english person, and i
always dream i wish my english is perfect
so thank you very much…pls post more video
Dear Jmaes,
Elaborate more on word ” TO BE ”.
Its really confussing.
I watched the complete chapter but you expalined little about
” TO BE ”.
So, please give us some more examples.
Thanks teacher for all this information.
Hi James
Today I have known a more way to use the verb Ving. The understanding of the using of the verb Ving is very difficult to me. I hope you can do other videos about this matter.
Your lesson are always very interesting and useful to me.
Thanks a lots
Raul
Dear James
I have written a few times for you but I hadn’t have a luck to talk to you yet.
Here is my question, please let me know.
Int he below paragraph why don’t we say ” students are confusing or confused) the word confusing is it a gerund or present participle (verbal). Verbals are the most confusing sections in English grammar.
This English lesson outlines the difference between “used to” and “I’m used to”. I’m used to hearing ESL students (confusing )these two, so watch this lesson and learn the difference!
Looking forward to hearing from you.

hi there
I wanna ask you mr.james which tense used with ” I’m used ”
thanks
Thanks,
It was really interesting and useful.
Thank you again James. You are brilliant.
ok let me see if I understood.
When I was younger, I used to play all day long in the park.
I’m used to playing in the park all Saturdays.
I’m not used to talking to strange people.
Please let me know if they are correct…….Thanks……
Thank you again for the useful info.I have a question here.
What about ( get used to )? we use it like:
used to or I;m used to…..
It is very usefull lesson
Oh, it’s a very nice class, James!! Thank you!
I just wanna know the difference between “I get used to” and “I’m used to”… is it the same thing?!
Thanksss a lot!
Dear James,
Thank you very much for this useful and interesting topic, honestly this is my first time to know this difference and will start use it immediately.
Teachers, I am really learning from your video lessons.It does help me to improve my grammar.Thanks a lot.
hey James! nice lesson but I have a question, why do you use the ING with the verbs if u have “TO” so the first thing I do to set a verb in gerund is eliminate the “to” so I think you must say I’m used to work everyday “not Working”
you have my e-mail so
write to me please as sonn as posible. thanks!!!
thank’s james alot

Hello Mr. James
I just wanna know if this sentence is correct:
She was used to doin the chores around the house but then she had to got to used to doing nothing. (i’m not the one who gave this example yet I think there’s something wrong)

I have two questions of using “Negative” with used to :
(1) I used to go to school earlier. –> I didn’t use to go to school earlier? or I used to not go to school earlier? (which one is correct?)
(2)I am used to dressing up–> I am not used to gressing up or I am used to not gressing up? (which one is correct?) Please kindly advise with thanks
I didn’t use to go to school early.
I am used to dressing up.

James,
I have a question, but first I’d like to say that I am loving the lessons, it is really helping me, however, you did one thing that I noticed I don’t know.

Thank you for the lessons,

ROFL. James always come with naughty examples but yet are useful. Thanks very much SIR!

i’m used to sufing internet
i think after to must be the original verb not past or with ing
Nice. Watching your videos helps me improve my accent. Thanks
” Nice. Watching your videos helps me improve my accent. Thanks ”
It’s ” Help me” not ” Helps me”. Because ‘Videos’ is a plural, and the verb ‘Help’ refers to it.
Thanks :D
I love your comment <3 Really, not in an ironic way…
hi, i saw this video and i understood a thing u didn’t mention/ that’s how to make it negative for (( i used to)). it’s really essential to know . if it’s possible plz replace the video it new corrected to avoid teaching impair. tanx

Hi James!
Can you please confirm the negative and interrogative forms of “I USED TO “? E.g I used to play => “I DIDN’T USED TO PLAY” and “DID YOU USED TO PLAY” ? Is it correct?
I didn’t use to play football.
I usedn’t to… / I used not to…
Did you use to…? / Used you to…?
Didn’t you use to…? / Usedn’t you to …?
Note: take into account that ‘Did/Didn’t you use to’ is a more informal form, common in conversation.
I want to answer your question, Milly. You can’t say “I DIDN’T USED TO PLAY”, the right form is “I DIDN’T USE TO PLAY”.and about the question “DID YOU USED TO PLAY” -it’s not correct, the right form is “DID YOU USE TO PLAY?”
James, you got me little confused with
I used to(present)
I thought it was past.
you lesson are funny, but if you can clear this to me, I will be tankful.
I used to ( past )
I’m used to ( present )
hope you got it :)
wud u plss tell me the interrogative sentence using this “used to”. i mean if i want to ask sumone if he or she was used to doing sumthing then how can i ask
let me be honest with you i did not understand this lesson in the first time but when i watch it again it was very clear for me, so it is not difficult but we have to be attentions>>>> thank you Mr.jemes
Thanks James
You are really gem in english language, your lectures helps me lot in improving my english lanuage.

Thanks james It was very good lesson

2. Can a person say “I used to ________, I’m used to it.”
Thanks Mr James, it helps me a lot in doing my grammar description assignment.Hope to see more from you.Thanks again. :)
thanks a lot for lesson
James.. I have to say that your lesson was fantastic.. I showed it to my students as an extra and follow up to our ‘used to’ lesson(teaching at a language school down under!) and they loved it. I was pleased to see someone else as silly as I sometimes can be.. it’s usually responded to in a positive way, and they all had a good chuckle at the underwear bit. I’m sure most of them will be trying out your website again, and just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration to use fun examples… loved it! cheers!
Thank you James d^_^b
Thanks

Hi Mr James
, the meanings of “V2V USED TO + VING” and “USED TO + Vbase) have the same if they used the action description in the past. this is correct or not please explain.
ex: I was used to speaking english in public
I used to speak english in public
how abt the pattern like “was or were used to???
hi teacher …thank you so much for your great informations ..it helps me more in my educations ..really you are good teacher
tanks james now i understand very good the lesson
thnx sir
Greetings from Korea,
James Thanks for your lecture!
It was perfect. :)
I have a question and please I would love if someone answers me… I already saw the video BUT there’s one doubt. Is it only with Ving? I think I’ve heard “I’m used to drink coffee” but I don’t know if that’s correct.
I have another doubt about how to use “I got used to”. PLEASE, I’D BE HAPPY IF SOMEONE FROM ENGVID ANSWERS ME. Thanks a lot
You might have heard wrong! They were probably saying “I used to drink coffee”. (In the past, I drank coffee regularly, but I don’t any more.)
As for “get used to”…it’s how you talk about adjusting to changes or new things:
– The train goes right by my new house. It’s really loud, but I’ve gotten used to it — I don’t even notice any more.
– The store isn’t carrying that kind of coffee any more. You’ll have to get used to going without it.
– My sister just got married. She’s still getting used to having her mother-in-law around.
Hi, thanks for your clear explanation which helps me to understand it much better. Yet, I still have a question for you, can I conclude that I’m used to is just the same as an expression to talk about habit we usually do at present?
Thank you James, I was confusing about these phrases for long time. your explained help me understand better.
I’d like to know more about usage of “get used to” where should we use it?Thanks very much
i used to play the piano when i was a child.
Hi James… James, I like your lesson, about used to…and I’m used to. But I have read, I don’t know where… I get used to. Could you explain us, “get used to”.
´´I´m USED TO´´ and ´´I´m GET USED TO´´ is a different?
Hello James. Can i to say: He WAS used to ?
Hi Teacher
Could you explain about “got used to” also?
Thanks James…a very helpful lesson…thanks again for your teaching
Thanks James , pretty clear your explanation, and If someone else does not have clear about The Verb “TO BE” I recommended first of all practice on that topic and then see this video, as many things in the life there are levels and steps to learn, and one level bring you up to another level and on and on, peace everybody. I really enjoyed this class, thanks James keep doing it.
james, please tell where to use
sorry please tell where to use (to+v1 and to+v1ing)
Hello!
I just want to ask about this:
Last Saturday, I went to West Mountain. I was very tired, but ( I’m happy or I was happy. )
Thank you…Please help me with this….
Thanks James
thanks james
I got what I need
Thank you for the comprehensible explanation in such a friendly manner!
THANK YOU
I LIKE IT. ITS CLEAR AND SIMPLE
Sometimes i get little bit confused that using to+ving is right or wrong…….. So please tell me some more rules where to+ving form is used..(I really need this)
THANX in advance
Im used to cooking at night when i get home
what about the base form after (to)????
“i am used to ” does mean “conformated with ”
“i used to” does mean ” i did smth ” ( past )
A.W.E.S.O.M.E.!!! Great job James!
You explained the topic fantastique. And watching it is so much fun (You used to wear lady underwear?!? ;) ).
I’m used to waiting for ur next lesson.
Dear Jame!
thanks about your lesson
Thanks James,
Now i am able to understand the difference between these two confusing words.
This is actually nice James… I never considered “I’m Used to”… thanks for today I learn one more new thing….
Wow! I didn’t know about it, thanks so much for that great video
hi,
I never used to visit this site but now I feel like I’m starting to get used to it:)
Could you help me with some piece of grammar though? There’s a construction “be accustomed to”, it’s similar to “get used to” by meaning. But what’s it followed by: doing/to do? I’ve seen both variants a number of times so I’m a bit a t a loss:) TIA
It was very important this video, for improve my english…..thanks James
Tanks for teaching
Why ur lesson did not have quiz?
Hello there! well I’m new here, I’ve been studying and learning by myself for a long time, that’s how I found you on youtube :)
I Have a huge confusion about this topic, actually, the lesson has been really clear, but my question is related to what I’ve been hearing about the using of “be used to”. I’ve heard: “I’m used to study at night” – I’m pretty aware that we must use a gerund instead of an infinitive, but is there any exception in spoken English, informal English or Brithish English, in which it’s possible to use an infinitive with “Be Used to” like: “I’m used to exercise everyday”?
Thank you! :)
Welcome! Thanks for commenting!
I hope another teacher chimes in, but here’s my guess — could you have been mishearing “I used to study at night”?
“I’m used to exercise every day” works if exercise is a noun — “I’m used to [getting] exercise every day”.
thank you very much !
I like James as a teacher/
Good lesson :)
There “use to” and “used to” and there “use to get” and “used to get” and there “got” with word use & used. I get very confused the correct tense in writing and speaking?
So, is it wrong if I say “I’m used to make a cake” instead of “I’m used to making a cake?
It’s like mixing gerund with infinitive.
Well, I think I grabbed your doubt. Usually the preposition to is followed by a verb in infinitive form according you said, but the expression “used to” always will have the “to” preposition like a phrasal verb. Actually, you must utilize ING form because the structure of sentence starts with Subject + verb to be. Unlike the sentence would have the same structure of the past actions that you don’t do anymore. Otherwise, how could we differentiate the two situations? I hope it can help you.
what happened with the quiz..
thanks james
Thanks James. I also interested in ” get used to doing…..”. Would you so kind to suggest me where I can find examples? Have a nice day.
Thanks James, I used to confuse them :-)
Thank you for good lesson!
Thanks for the lesson James. I think that you are by far the funniest, among the teachers, and the only one who writes the website on the board.
nice
thanks a lot
Thanks James
Thank again for awesome class, it was pretty useful, specially because I’ve noticed that the most all students had the same doubt in which I’d made mistake, where I work for, I have to deal with guys from the U.S.A. and others countries where English language is used a lot, anyway, I always thought that I heard from those guys the following form: I’m used to DO/TRY/SPEAK/SEE ….”, by now I can understand that I was completely wrong in my own interpretation of what they were saying!!!!
Thank a million for you all
Hi james
can you tell me how to use (used to) in a negative sentence. thanks
The correct negative forms of these sentences are:
For “I’m used to + -ing”
I’M NOT USED TO standING here.
For “I used to”
I DIDN’T USE TO speak English.
Thank you James, it’s very useful.
Thank you
HI JAMES,i am so glad to take your lesson and well i am learning so munch and thanks for everything

Not all the lessons have quizzes!
Thanks a lot james

It’s almost OK. I the first pasrt of the sentence you have to use with V1 (first form of the verb) and the second part the ‘ING’ form. eg: I used to do katate but nowdays I’m used to doing kung fu. Basically, this meens I did carate regurally in the past, but these days I do kung fu regurally, now I’m familiar with kung fu.
T u 4 ur further Explanation
Thank you so much for so useful lesson! I tried to understand this topic by myself but then I realized I do need the help of a wonderful teacher))) It seems, now I am pretty confident regarding these two phrases.
Thank you James.Very usefull lesson.
This man is outstanding.
The difference between a Past Simple (I used to) and a Present Continuous (I am studying) but this last tense like a tense with an adverb between the auxiliary “V2B” and the main verb, so it’s “I am STILL/ALREADY/JUST studying” or “I am USED TO studying” what it’s not new or strange. It’s a method to remember the difference of these tense for me. Good explanation and performance. Thanks teacher James from EngVid.
Thank you James.
Thnks James…
Thanks James,it’s an usefull lesson
U are used to doing well

thanks teacher, it is very useful. I only knew the first structure to talk about the past and I didn’t have idea of the second structure to talk about the present
Thank you, James. You are amazing, man.
All the teachers are great, but this guy is my favorite by far. Haha! I love your lessons and you explain everything clearly. Congratulations and thanks for the lesson. However, is there any kind difference when the verb “to be” is in the past while using “I’m used to”? Thanks is advance!
