My WORD!

BODY LANGUAGE

(n) Communication with others through movements of your body and through your facial expressions rather than with words.

eg. Although she said we could borrow her CD, her body language told us she did not really want to lend it to us.

Student Task:

1. What is the difference between 'borrow' and 'lend'? How do you use these words? Which word best suits these sentences:

a) May I __________ your phone?

b) Can you __________ me your phone?

(hint - remember: The person who wants to use something is the borrower. The person who allows the person to use something that belongs to her/him is the lender!)
