Lend and borrow

Lend and borrow
 

It´s me again

I don´t understand well the difference between lend and borrow, could anybody help me?

Thanks

Re: Lend and borrow
 

To lend means to give something to someone, to share it and want it back soon

To borrow means someone lends something to you, meaning they share it with you and they want it back

For example, a book, movie, or game.

Hope this helps.

I have 50$ and my friend Jake needs 50$. I lend Jake 50$ and Jake agrees to pay me back in 1 month. I am the lender because I leant the money. Jake is the borrower because he borrowed the money. Jake better get my money back to me or I'm gonna shave his eyebrows while he sleeps. j/k

Hope this explains it.

Thanks for the humor Eric, just what I needed tonight- to worry you're going to come shave my eyebrows. ;D
