There is actually such thing as borrow and lend and as loveskid as rightly said, to lend means to give while to borrow means to receive e.g

I lend her my pen which means i gave her my pen

Tolu borrowed my ruler which means tolu received my ruler

Can i borrow ur pen pls = can i receive you pen pls

please lend me your book = pls give me ur book

And looking at loan, it comes with interest so loan is out of it the correct ans is LEND

The correct verb there is lend because to lend is to give, while to borrow is to receive

Example: I lent him my pen last night
I borrowed the pen from him

This question was given in 1978 before the dictionary was updated.
