EN: to have something lent to someone
This is the verb for when you're the middleman in a lending situation. Your friend wants to borrow your sibling's bike. You tell your sibling, "**Ipahiram** mo na sa kanya yung bike mo." You're not the one lending, but you're facilitating the loan. It’s being the enabler for your friend who always forgets their ballpen.
ROOT MEANING: borrowed
This is a causative form. The subject of the verb is the person being asked to do the lending, not the person who is lending.
