意味
To borrow money from a bank or lender.
文化的背景
The 'Loi Scrivener' protects consumers who contract a loan by giving them a mandatory 10-day reflection period before they can sign. In Quebec, while 'contracter un prêt' is used, you will also hear 'emprunter à la banque' very frequently due to North American influence. In many West African countries, 'tontines' (informal savings circles) are used instead of 'contracting a loan' from a bank. The term 'crédit hypothécaire' is very common when contracting a loan for a house, more so than just 'prêt immobilier'.
Sound like a native
In a job interview, use 'contracter' when talking about company debt to show you have professional-level French.
Don't say 'Prendre'
Avoid 'prendre un prêt'. It's a common anglicism that sounds uneducated in French.
