EN: to borrow for someone
The ultimate 'paki-utang' verb. This is when your friend has no more 'mukhang ihaharap' to the lender (or to their suking tindahan), so you step in to borrow on their behalf. You're the middleman in this transaction of trust (and debt). 'Bes, pwede mo ba akong ipanghiram ng 100 pesos kay Aling Nena? Babayaran ko agad sa sahod.'
From `i-` (benefactive prefix) + `pang-` (instrumental prefix) + `hiram` (borrow).
ROOT MEANING: borrowed
This is a benefactive verb, meaning the action of borrowing is done for someone else's benefit. It can also have an instrumental meaning ('to use something to borrow'), but the benefactive sense is more common.
