More sources for all those students who study English through Portuguese. I was browsing on web and I've found English Experts, a good site full of good tips, it's really worthy to check it out!One nice thing, for example, the difference between borrow and lend.
Where I work, we teach "can you lend me a pen?", at the first class, but, further on, these students will face a "can I borrow your cell phone?" and, certainly, they'll ask the difference. Well, borrow means to take something from someone, with permission and with the intention of giving it back. You usually say: I borrowed this pen drive from my sister.
On the other hand, you say lend to give something to someone, with the expectation that s/he will return it, as: can you lend me a pencil, please?
So, that's it for today. I'll tweet this, where you can follow me, ok?
