Usage notes
- (loan, borrow): The choice for the case for the object depends on the nuance. In questions of permission, e.g. "may/can I borrow it?", the partitive case is often used for the object. In statements, the partitive case often implies loaning or borrowing something for a brief amount of time, while the accusative case implies a longer term loan or borrowing.
