I can see, that all of the sentences are fragmented. It is all broken. So, I cannot detect what are you pointing out. If it is, present, past or future. ^^, "WOULD" is an auxiliary verb, a modal auxiliary verb. We use would mainly to: talk about the past talk about the future in the past express the conditional mood "USED" We use 'used to' for something that happened regularly in the past but no longer happens. We also use it for something that was true but no longer is. We use 'to be used to doing' to say that something is normal, not unusual. We use 'to get used to doing' to talk about the process of something becoming normal for us. :) hope you understand the differences.
