　?。畚觯萦⒄Z中有三個詞都可譯為“借”，但意義各不相同如：“借入”是borrow，其常用句型結(jié)構(gòu)是borrow something from somebody，這是個瞬間性動詞，不可與表示延續(xù)的時間狀語連用。例如：The students want to borrow some books from the library. “借出”用lend，即借給別人東西。其常用句型是lend somebody something, 或lend something to somebody.例如：Could you lend us your dictionary?或Could you lend your dictionary to us? 它也是瞬間性動詞，也不能與延續(xù)的時間狀語連用。keep則是延續(xù)性動詞，可以和表示長時間段的時間狀語連用，也可與how long等疑問詞連用，如：You can keep it for three days.
