Usage Note :
  • Do not confuse borrow and lend. You say that you borrow something from another person. However, if you allow someone to borrow something that belongs to you, you say that you lend it to them. Lend is often followed by two objects. Betty lent him some blankets... He lent Tim the money. Both borrow and lend can be used without objects. The poor had to borrow from the rich... Banks will not lend to them. The noun related to lend is loan. ...a government loan of £3m.Loan can also be used as a verb in the same way as lend, especially in American English. I'll loan you fifty dollars.

    不要混淆 borrow lend。借他人的东西用borrow...from..., 但借东西给他人则用lend...to...lend后常接双宾语:Betty lent him some blankets(贝蒂借给他几条毯子),He lent Tim the money(他把钱借给了蒂姆)。borrow lend 都可以不接宾语:The poor had to borrow from the rich(穷人不得不向富人借钱),Banks will not lend to them(银行不会贷款给他们)。和lend相关的名词是 loan: a government loan of £3m(一笔300万英镑的政府贷款)。loan还可用作动词,其用法与lend相同,尤其是在美国英语中:I'll loan you fifty dollars(我会借给你50美元)。
