I had swimming lessons when I was little. 小さい頃は水泳を習っていました。 レッスンを受けていた(had lessons)で、「[習っていた](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/55069/)」を自然に表現できます。 他には took lessons のように言うこともできます。 swimming lessonsではなく、swim lessonsでも大丈夫です。 他の[習い事](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/46009/)にも使えます。 I had piano lessons when I was in elementary school.(小学生のときピアノを習っていた)

There are a number of ways you can say that you had swimming lessons when you were little. When you were little can also be: When I was a child In my childhood. As a child Swimming lessons can also be interchangeable with - learning how to swim. I hope that helps!
小さい頃に水泳を習っていたことという言い方はいろいろあります。 小さい頃は、 When I was a child In my childhood As a child と言えます。 水泳のレッスンは、 learn how to swim という言い方もできますね。 I had swimming lessons. = I learned how to swim. 参考になればうれしいです!

  • When i was young, I took swimming lessons.

  • I was given swimming instruction as a kid.

    play icon

  • I was taught to swim in formal lessons that my parents signed me up for.

The first example would be the most casual and natural sounding option. The second and third are acceptable as well but sound a bit formal in how they are worded.
最初の例は、最もカジュアルで自然な響きの選択肢です。2つ目と3つ目も受け入れられますが、少しフォーマルに聞こえる表現です。

You may replace 'I used to take' with 'I was given' swimming lessons, and, you may replace little with 'kid' which means a 'young child' in the first statement. In the second statement, 'I used to take' has been replaced with 'I took' which is the past tense of the verb to 'take', and, little has also been replaced with 'young child'. So, you may say: I was given swimming lessons when I was a kid. or I took swimming lessons when I was a young child.
最初の表現の'I used to take' を 'I was given'に置き換えたり、'little'と'kid'を置き換えることが出来ます。 これは'young child'(小さい子供)と言う意味です。 二番目の表現の 'I used to take'は 'I took'( 'take'の過去形)と置き換えられています。 そして'little'は'young child'に置き換えられています。 ですので、次のように表現することが出来ます。 【例】 I was given swimming lessons when I was a kid. (子供の頃は水泳を習っていました) I took swimming lessons when I was a young child. (小さい子供の頃は水泳を習っていました)

If you would like to tell someone that you used to take swim lessons as a child, you can say something like "When i was little i used to take swimming lessons." or "I used to take swimming lessons when i was little.".
子供のころ水泳を習っていたことを伝えるときのフレーズです。 "When i was little i used to take swimming lessons." (小さいころ、水泳のレッスンを受けていました。) "I used to take swimming lessons when i was little." (子供のころ水泳のレッスンを受けていました。)
