ESL used to do と would 以前は（昔は）〜した／〜だった used to do vs would 違い

I used to go to school by bus when I was a student.
I would go to school by bus when I was a student.
過去の習慣、繰り返し行われたアクション　regular actions / habits in the past

used to

肯定文）I used to go to school by bus.
否定文）I didn’t (did not) use to go to school by bus.
疑問文）Did you use to go to school by bus?

would

肯定文）I would go to school by bus.
否定文）I wouldn’t (would not) go to school by bus.
