When you lend something, you let someone else use it for a period of time, expecting to get it back. The Korean word for this is 빌려주다. You might lend a friend some money, or lend a book to a classmate. It's different from giving something permanently.
When you want to say that you are lending something to someone, you can use the verb 빌려주다 (bil-lyeo-ju-da). This verb literally means "to borrow and then give," which implies lending. For example, if you lend a book to your friend, you would use this verb.
It's often used with the particle 에게 (e-ge) or 한테 (han-te) to indicate the person you are lending something to. So you might say 친구에게 책을 빌려줬어요 (chin-gu-e-ge chae-geul bil-lyeo-jwo-sseo-yo), meaning "I lent a book to my friend."
Remember, 빌려주다 is for when you are the one giving the item. If you are receiving the item, you would use 빌리다 (bil-li-da), meaning "to borrow."
When you lend something to someone, you are the one giving it to them with the expectation of getting it back. The Korean word for this is 빌려주다. Think of it as 'to give as a loan'.
For example, you could say: 제가 친구에게 돈을 빌려줬어요. (I lent money to my friend.)
It's important to remember that 빌려주다 focuses on the action of you giving the item away temporarily.
When you want to say "to lend" in Korean, you use the verb 빌려주다. This verb is made up of two parts: 빌리다 (to borrow) and 주다 (to give). So, literally, it means "to borrow and then give," which translates to lending something to someone.
For example, if you want to say "Can you lend me a pen?", you would say "펜 좀 빌려줄 수 있어요?". Or, if you lent a book to a friend, you could say "친구에게 책을 빌려줬어요."
Remember that the person who is doing the lending is the subject of the sentence, and the person receiving the lent item is often indicated with the particle -에게 or -한테.
When using the verb '빌려주다' (to lend), it's important to understand the direction of the action. This verb implies that you are the one giving something to someone else with the expectation of its return. It's often used with the particles ~에게/한테 (to someone) to indicate the recipient of the borrowed item.
For instance, if you lend a book to a friend, you would say '친구에게 책을 빌려주다'. The person who is doing the lending is the subject of the sentence. The object is the item being lent, and the indirect object is the person receiving the item.

- Use '빌려주다' when you give something for temporary use.
- It's the opposite of '빌리다' (to borrow).
- Commonly used for books, money, or other personal items.
§ What does it mean and when do people use it?
Let's learn about the Korean verb 빌려주다. This verb is super useful because it means 'to lend' in English. It's a fundamental word, especially when you need to talk about sharing items or even money. Think about situations where you're offering something to someone else with the expectation that it will be returned. That's exactly when you'll use 빌려주다.
The verb 빌려주다 is made up of two parts: 빌리다 (to borrow) and 주다 (to give). So, literally, it means 'to borrow and then give,' which cleverly translates to 'to lend.' This is a common pattern in Korean where verbs are combined to create new meanings. Understanding this structure can help you remember the word better and even guess the meaning of other compound verbs.
- DEFINITION
- To lend. It implies giving something to someone for a temporary period, with the understanding that it will be returned.
You'll find yourself using 빌려주다 in many everyday situations. For instance, if a friend asks to use your pen, you would say you can 빌려주다 it to them. Or, if a classmate needs your notes for a day, you would use this verb. It's not just for small items; you can also use it for larger things like a book, a bicycle, or even a car, though the context might require more specific phrasing for larger assets.
Here are some common scenarios where 빌려주다 is used:
- When someone asks for a tool you own.
- When a friend needs some money for a short time.
- When you let someone use your umbrella on a rainy day.
- When you allow someone to read your book.
- When you share your charger with someone whose phone battery is low.
저는 친구에게 펜을 빌려줬어요.
- HINT
- I lent a pen to my friend.
그는 나에게 돈을 빌려줄 수 있어요.
- HINT
- He can lend me money.
우산을 빌려주세요.
- HINT
- Please lend me your umbrella.
When you use 빌려주다, you'll often see it conjugated. For example, in the past tense, it becomes 빌려줬어요 (lent). In the polite present tense, it's 빌려줘요 or 빌려줍니다. If you are asking someone to lend something to you in a polite way, you can say 빌려주세요 (please lend me...). The context and formality of the situation will determine which conjugation you should use. Since 빌려주다 is an A1 level word, mastering its basic conjugations will be very helpful for your early Korean conversations.
Keep practicing with different objects and people to make this verb a natural part of your vocabulary. The more you use it, the easier it will become to distinguish it from 빌리다 and use both verbs correctly in your daily conversations. This verb is a cornerstone for expressing actions of sharing and temporary possession, which are very common in human interaction.
§ Understanding 빌려주다
Hello! Today, we're going to break down the Korean verb 빌려주다, which means "to lend." This is a really practical verb you'll use often, so let's get comfortable with it.
- Korean Word
- 빌려주다 (verb)
- CEFR Level
- A1
- Definition
- To lend
The verb 빌려주다 is made up of two parts: 빌리다 (to borrow) and 주다 (to give). When you combine them, it literally means "to borrow and give," which translates to "to lend." This structure is common in Korean, where verbs are combined to create new meanings.
§ How to use it in a sentence
When using 빌려주다, you'll typically see a few common particles and sentence structures. Let's look at the key elements.
- Who is lending? This is the subject of your sentence, marked by the subject particles 이/가 or 은/는.
- To whom are they lending? This is the person receiving the item, and it's marked by the dative particle 에게 or 한테. 한테 is more common in spoken Korean.
- What are they lending? This is the direct object, marked by the object particle 을/를.
The basic sentence structure will look like this:
[Lender] + [Subject Particle] + [Receiver] + [에게/한테] + [Item] + [을/를] + 빌려주다.
§ Examples
Let's look at some examples to make this clearer:
저는 친구에게 책을 빌려줬어요.
- Translation hint
- I lent a book to my friend.
In this example:
- 저는 (I + subject particle) is the lender.
- 친구에게 (friend + to) is the receiver.
- 책을 (book + object particle) is the item being lent.
엄마는 나에게 돈을 빌려줬어요.
- Translation hint
- Mom lent me money.
선생님은 학생에게 펜을 빌려주셨어요.
- Translation hint
- The teacher lent a pen to the student. (Honorific form for teacher)
§ Common mistakes to avoid
One common mistake learners make is confusing 빌려주다 (to lend) with 빌리다 (to borrow). They are opposites! Remember: you 빌려주다 something to someone, and you 빌리다 something from someone. We'll cover 빌리다 in another lesson.
Also, don't forget the correct particles! Using 에게/한테 for the receiver and 을/를 for the item is crucial for clear communication.
Keep practicing these structures, and you'll be lending things in Korean like a pro in no time!
§ Understanding 빌려주다 (To Lend)
The Korean verb 빌려주다 (bil-lyeo-ju-da) means 'to lend.' It's a fundamental word for talking about giving something to someone with the expectation that it will be returned. While it might seem straightforward, there are some common pitfalls English speakers encounter when using it. Let's break down these mistakes and how to avoid them.
- Korean Word
- 빌려주다 (bil-lyeo-ju-da)
- Meaning
- To lend
§ Mistake 1: Confusing 빌려주다 with 빌리다
This is perhaps the most common mistake. While 빌려주다 means 'to lend' (you are the one giving), 빌리다 (bil-li-da) means 'to borrow' (you are the one receiving). They are two sides of the same coin, but using the wrong one will completely flip the meaning of your sentence.
저는 친구에게 돈을 빌려주었어요.
I lent money to my friend. (Correct)
저는 친구에게 돈을 빌렸어요.
I borrowed money from my friend. (Different meaning)
§ Mistake 2: Incorrect Particle Usage for the Recipient
When you lend something to someone, you need to use the particle 에게 (e-ge) or 한테 (han-te) with the person you are lending to. Using the wrong particle or omitting it can make your sentence grammatically incorrect or sound unnatural.
Correct usage:
존에게 제 책을 빌려주었어요.
존한테 제 책을 빌려주었어요.
Incorrect usage:
존은 제 책을 빌려주었어요.
This would imply John lent *his* book, or that John is the subject lending something, not the recipient.
§ Mistake 3: Overlooking the 'Return' Aspect
빌려주다 inherently implies that the item will be returned. If you're giving something permanently, you should use 주다 (ju-da) 'to give' or 선물하다 (seon-mul-ha-da) 'to gift' instead.
저는 친구에게 펜을 빌려주었어요.
I lent a pen to my friend. (Expect to get the pen back.)
저는 친구에게 펜을 주었어요.
I gave a pen to my friend. (The pen is now permanently theirs.)
§ Mistake 4: Using It for Abstract Concepts
While in English we might 'lend an ear' or 'lend a hand,' in Korean, 빌려주다 is typically used for tangible items or money. For abstract concepts, you'll need different expressions.
Instead of '빌려주다 an ear,' you would say 경청하다 (gyeong-cheong-ha-da) 'to listen carefully' or 이야기를 들어주다 (i-ya-gi-reul deul-eo-ju-da) 'to listen to someone's story.'
Instead of '빌려주다 a hand,' you would say 돕다 (dop-da) 'to help' or 손을 빌려주다 (son-eul bil-lyeo-ju-da) 'to lend a hand' (literally, but it's more idiomatic). The literal translation of '손을 빌려주다' is common, but don't try to apply '빌려주다' directly to other abstract nouns.
그는 나에게 돈을 빌려주었다.
He lent me money. (Correct, tangible item)
나는 그의 이야기를 들어주었다.
I listened to his story. (Correct for abstract concept, instead of 'lent an ear')
How Formal Is It?
"도서관에서 책을 빌려주셔서 감사합니다. (Thank you for lending me a book from the library.)"
"친구에게 돈을 빌려줄 수 있어요? (Can you lend money to a friend?)"
"나한테 펜 좀 빌려줘. (Lend me a pen.)"
"친구에게 장난감을 빌려줄까? (Shall we lend a toy to a friend?)"
"야, 나한테 만 원만 빌려줘라. (Hey, lend me 10,000 won.)"
रोचक तथ्य
The word is a combination of '빌리다' (to borrow) and '주다' (to give). So, literally, it means 'to borrow and give', which conceptually forms 'to lend'.
उच्चारण मार्गदर्शिका
- Beginners often struggle with the 'eo' (ㅓ) vowel sound, which is similar to the 'aw' in 'dawn' but shorter. Make sure not to make it too round like 'oh'.
- The 'ju' (주) sound should be a hard 'j' as in 'jump', not a soft 'z' or 'sh'.
- Ensure the 'll' sound is pronounced distinctly, like two 'l's in English 'fully', rather than a single 'l'.

इसे कैसे इस्तेमाल करें
빌려주다 is used when you are the one giving something to someone else temporarily. The structure is typically [object]을/를 빌려주다. You can also use [person]에게 [object]을/를 빌려주다 to specify who you are lending to. It’s the opposite of 빌리다 (to borrow).

Think of the '주다' (juda) part in 빌려주다 as 'to give', which helps you remember it's about giving something away temporarily.
सुझाव
Basic use of 빌려주다
빌려주다 (bil-lyeo-ju-da) means to lend. Use this verb when you are the one giving something to someone else with the expectation that it will be returned. For example, you lend a book to a friend.
Distinguishing from 빌리다
It's important not to confuse 빌려주다 (to lend) with 빌리다 (bil-li-da), which means to borrow. Think of it this way: you 빌려주다 something *to* someone, and you 빌리다 something *from* someone.
Formal vs. informal use
빌려주다 is a relatively neutral verb. In more formal situations, you might use an honorific form if appropriate, but for everyday interactions, 빌려주다 is perfectly fine for lending to friends or family.
Common objects to lend
You can lend many things. Common examples include 돈 (don - money), 책 (chaek - book), 펜 (pen - pen), or 자동차 (ja-dong-cha - car). Just attach the object to 빌려주다.
Asking to lend (indirectly)
While you are lending, if you want to ask someone to lend something to you, you would use 빌리다. For example, '펜 좀 빌려줄 수 있어요?' (Can you lend me a pen?).
Future tense with 빌려주다
To say you will lend something, add the future tense ending. For example, '제가 책을 빌려줄 거예요.' (I will lend you the book).
Past tense with 빌려주다
To say you lent something, use the past tense. For example, '저는 그에게 돈을 빌려줬어요.' (I lent him money).
Who are you lending to?
When using 빌려주다, you often specify who you are lending to using ~에게 (e-ge) or ~한테 (han-te). For example, '친구에게 펜을 빌려줬어요.' (I lent a pen to my friend).
Polite requests to lend
If you are asking someone to lend you something, use '빌려주시겠어요?' (Would you lend me...?) for a polite request. Remember this is using the honorific form of 주다.
Negative form of 빌려주다
To say you will not lend something, use 안 빌려주다 (an bil-lyeo-ju-da) or ~지 않다 (~ji an-ta). For example, '저는 안 빌려줄 거예요.' (I will not lend it).

빌려주다 means 'to lend' (you give something out), while 빌리다 means 'to borrow' (you take something in). They are opposites! Think of it this way: 빌려주다 is 'lend out,' and 빌리다 is 'borrow in.'
Yes, absolutely! You can say '돈을 빌려줄 수 있어요?' which means 'Can you lend me money?'
Like most Korean verbs, 빌려주다 changes based on politeness. The basic form is 빌려주다. For informal, you might say 빌려줘. For polite, you'd use 빌려줘요 or 빌려드립니다 (more formal/humble). For example, '친구에게 펜을 빌려줬어요' (I lent a pen to my friend).
Yes, you typically use the dative particle -에게 or -한테 to indicate the person you are lending to. For example, '동생에게 장난감을 빌려줬어요' (I lent a toy to my younger sibling).
While it's most common for physical objects and money, you could metaphorically use it for things like time or a hand, though there are often more natural Korean expressions for those. Stick to concrete items for now as a beginner.
You would use the future tense ending. So, '제가 책을 빌려줄게요' means 'I will lend you a book.' Or, '내일 빌려줄 수 있어요' (I can lend it tomorrow).
You wouldn't ask someone to lend *you* something using 빌려주다 directly. Instead, you'd ask them 'Can you lend it to me?' For example, '저에게 펜을 빌려줄 수 있어요?' (Can you lend me a pen?)
A common mistake is confusing it with 빌리다. Remember: 빌려주다 is when YOU are giving something out, and 빌리다 is when YOU are taking something in. Always double-check who is giving and who is receiving.
Absolutely! You just add the past tense ending. For example, '어제 친구에게 우산을 빌려줬어요' means 'Yesterday, I lent my friend an umbrella.'

The sentence indicates that 'I lent a book to my friend' in the past tense. '빌려주었다' is the correct past tense form of '빌려주다'.

The sentence means 'He disliked lending me money'. '빌려주는 것을' correctly expresses 'the act of lending'.
If you say '친구에게 돈을 빌려줬어요', it means you borrowed money from your friend.
'친구에게 돈을 빌려줬어요' means 'I lent money to my friend'. '빌려주다' means 'to lend', not 'to borrow'.

The sentence means 'The bank agreed to lend a large amount.' '빌려주는' (lending) correctly completes the phrase 'to lend a large amount'.
도서관에서 책을 ___ 수 있나요?

그는 내게 돈을 ___ 주겠다고 약속했다.
The sentence 'He promised to lend me money' requires '빌려 주겠다고' (would lend). '빌려' is the correct form to use before '주다' when expressing the action of lending to someone.
도서관에서 책을 ___ 수 있습니다.
The sentence 'You can lend books at the library' is incorrect. The sentence should be 'You can borrow books at the library.' '빌려줄 수 있습니다' would mean 'can lend'.

'저는 친구에게 연필을 빌려주었습니다.' means 'My friend lent me a pencil.'

Sample answer
소액 대출은 경제적으로 취약한 이들에게 적은 금액을 빌려주는 것으로, 그들이 자립할 수 있도록 돕는 사회적 투자입니다. 전통적인 은행이 큰 자본을 빌려주는 것과는 달리, 소액 대출은 개인의 사업 시작이나 교육 기회 제공에 초점을 맞춥니다. 이렇게 소액을 빌려주어 빈곤을 줄이고 지역 사회를 활성화하는 데 기여합니다. 따라서 단순히 돈을 빌려주는 것을 넘어선 의미를 가집니다.
위 글에서 '빌려주는 행위'가 가져다주는 심리적 만족감이 커지는 상황은 언제라고 언급되었나요?
Read this passage:
최근 한 연구에 따르면, 사람들은 자신의 물건을 다른 사람에게 빌려주는 행위에서 예상보다 큰 심리적 만족감을 얻는다고 합니다. 특히, 어려움에 처한 이에게 필요한 것을 빌려줄 때 그 만족감은 더욱 커진다고 합니다. 이는 단순한 호의를 넘어, 사회적 연결감과 자아 효능감을 높이는 중요한 요인이 될 수 있습니다. 하지만 반복적으로 빌려주고 돌려받지 못하는 상황은 오히려 관계를 악화시킬 수 있으므로 주의가 필요합니다.

문학 작품 속에서 '빌려주다'라는 개념은 단순한 물건의 이동을 넘어, 은유적인 의미로 사용되는 경우가 많습니다. 예를 들어, 희망을 빌려주거나, 시간을 빌려주거나, 심지어는 자신의 존재를 타인에게 빌려주는 형태로 표현되기도 합니다. 이는 작가가 인물의 관계나 심리 상태를 심도 있게 묘사하고, 독자에게 더 깊은 메시지를 전달하기 위한 수단으로 활용됩니다. 이러한 은유적 사용은 작품의 풍부함을 더합니다.

Summary
Remember that '빌려주다' means 'to lend' something to someone, implying that you own it and are letting someone else use it temporarily.
- Use '빌려주다' when you give something for temporary use.
- It's the opposite of '빌리다' (to borrow).
- Commonly used for books, money, or other personal items.
Basic use of 빌려주다
빌려주다 (bil-lyeo-ju-da) means to lend. Use this verb when you are the one giving something to someone else with the expectation that it will be returned. For example, you lend a book to a friend.
Distinguishing from 빌리다
It's important not to confuse 빌려주다 (to lend) with 빌리다 (bil-li-da), which means to borrow. Think of it this way: you 빌려주다 something *to* someone, and you 빌리다 something *from* someone.
Formal vs. informal use
빌려주다 is a relatively neutral verb. In more formal situations, you might use an honorific form if appropriate, but for everyday interactions, 빌려주다 is perfectly fine for lending to friends or family.
