Tag - get used to

We use the phrase used to in the sense of formerly to indicate something that happened in the past but no longer does. While in centuries past there was a corresponding present tense form, use to, we now use this construction only in the past tense. Example The grocery store used to be in the heart of market. Ayesha used to work out every morning, but she has been too busy to keep up with it. My father used to take tea. The only time you should write use to instead of used to with this meaning of the phrase is when it is paired with did or didn’t. The reason is that did or didn’t will have assumed the obligation of reflecting the past tense. Did your father use to take tea? My father didn't use to take tea after meals.
