In this episode, I explain the difference between the verbs 'to borrow' and 'to lend', as well as talking about hiring and renting. 

English with Nici!

Lend and borrow!

იდიომა "ყურების ჩამოყრა"  ნიშნავს დასევდიანებას, მოწყენას. To be down in the mouth. The illustration (by Kote Iantbelidze) describes the idiom in a very direct (to throw down the ears), humoristic way.
