be used to + noun or -ing
get used to + noun or -ing

If somebody gets or is used to something, he becomes or is fully familiar with it. It is no longer strange or awkward. It can refer to past, present or future experiences.

Be or get used to can be replaced by be or become accustomed to which is very similar in meaning, if a little more formal.
