Borrow / Lend

"Borrow" means to take or receive something with the intention to give it back. "Lend" means to give something to someone expecting to get it back. So, we say:
- My friend lent me his book.
- I borrowed his book.
When we pay money to get something temporarily we use rent or hire.
- I rented a car.
- I hired a truck.
GRAMMAR DRILL

Can you correct the below sentences?
- Most women in Japan borrow a dress for their weddings, usually from the wedding palace.
- Could you lend me your pen?
- My friend borrowed me his book.
