Question

used to and would
Are  there any differences between these phrases or they mean the same? used to and would

Answer

They mean the same, both describing a habitual, repeated or long-term action in the past. However, the major difference is that 'used to' can be used with any verb, but 'would' can only be used with active verbs. We cannot use 'would' with stative verbs such as 'love', 'believe', etc.

Answer

Yes, they mean the same in the following context:
I used to go to the Central Park when I lived in NYC = I would go to the Central Park when I lived in NYC.

Answer

used to = делал что-то раньше

I used to knit well.
