Origin
ME: the noun from OFr. us, from L. usus, from uti 'to use'; the verb from OFr. user, based on L. uti.
Usage
Confusion can arise over whether to write used to or use to, largely because the pronunciation is the same in both cases. Except in negatives and questions, the correct form is used to: we used to go to the cinema all the time. However, in negatives and questions using the auxiliary verb do, the correct form is use to, because the form of the verb required is the infinitive: I didn't use to like mushrooms.
