O epizodě podcastu

Welcome back to my English podcast where I try to help you improve your English through the use of short sentences. The sentence that I have for you today is - We always used to go to the Mediterranean for our holidays when I was a child. I think we went to Ibiza at least 5 times. How to use 'used to' in English.

Describe a past habit with used to in English. Childhood holidays in the Mediterranean and visits to Ibiza provide the context. Always used to go points to a recurring experience in an earlier period of life. The short lesson examines the grammar and accompanying holiday vocabulary in one example.
