Vocabulary for your high Ielts, school, your bed, dine, score.
Rory, there's this expensive glass I really want to buy, but I don't want to wait until payday to get it.
Would you mind lending me the money for it?
Of course.
Shall we talk about borrowing and lending things?
Oh, yes, let's do that.
Borrowing and lending, dear listener.
So, first of all, when we borrow, we take something from another person for.
For some time, and the person lends us this thing.
Okay, so money, for example.
Rory lends me money and I borrow money from him.
Okay.
It's important to understand because in some languages,
the word for these two different concepts is actually the same, which can cause all kinds of problems.
