How to LEND and LOAN

Posted on August 24, 2022 by The dutty is "the ground," the foundation, the earth--just like words are part of the foundation on which I build my life.

Use lend as a verb

I will lend Mavis my car for the weekend.

NOT loan Mavis my car.

Use loan as a noun

I am happy to give Mavis a loan of $500 to pay for her books.
