Practice with "to be used to"

Send me a text message. Suggestions? Subjects for future podcasts? Let me know--thanks!This podcast will be doing double duty.*  First, it's another regular podcast to help you learn how to use "to be used to". If you practice all these examples, you should have a good feeling for when and how to use this form. Second, I'll be using this podcast along with a couple of Tandem classes, so that Tandem users can practice the lesson before   the class. We'll see how it goes.To be used to  = to be accustomed to1 I'm used to doing that.2 She's used to working a lot.3 Our dog is not used to us yet.4 I can't get used to her accent.5 I'm not used to so much homework.6 He's used to traveling for his job.7 Now that I'm used to my job I like it.8 Robert is used to helping his parents.9 John is used to eating a big breakfast10 I'm used to drinking water with dinner.11 In the army he got used to taking orders.12 Mary is used to running 5 km every morning.13 We are used to cooking for a lot of people.14 She's used to taking a shower every morning.15 She is used to practicing piano twice a day.16 Charlie is used to going to the gym after work.17 Medical students are used to working all night.18 Are you used to the cold weather where you live?19 I'm getting used to studying English all the time.20 He is used to watching TV for hours every evening.21 Olympic athletes are used to training all the time.22 I'm used to sleeping at least seven hours every night.23 My wife is used to my bad habits.

"He's getting used to his new job," for example. Or "I got used to his accent after a few weeks."* To do double duty means to do the work of two people, or to do two jobs.Intro & Outro Music: La Pompe Du Trompe by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com Support the showEmail me:  [email protected] can now support my podcasts and classes:Keep the podcasts coming!
