Habitude est un nom feminin designant une pratique repetee. Avoir l'habitude de + infinitif (to be used to doing something) et prendre l'habitude de (to get into the habit of) sont les constructions les plus courantes. Comme d'habitude (as usual) est une locution adverbiale tres frequente.
D'habitude (usually, normally) s'emploie pour decrire ce qui se passe habituellement. Habituellement est l'adverbe synonyme plus formel. Etre habitue(e) a (to be used to) et s'habituer a (to get used to) forment la famille verbale associee.
