“借點錢，先頂一下”的英文怎麼說???

Front someone a little hunny!
沒有錯，這個front在這裡是俚語的用法，當作動詞借的意思；hunny這個字也是俚語裡頭money的意思。注意一下這個用法的場合與氣氛。Front someone some hunny這樣的用法多半都是用在哥倆好，哥兒們手頭有些緊的時候，出手應急，解解危這樣的情況，當然不會用在陌生的場合啦。這樣的意思，是不是像極了我們中文裡頭，要哥們”借些點，檔一下啦”這樣的意思呢???
A: I’ve been low on cash these days, no can
do for a movie with you guys.
B: Want me to front you some hunnies?
借錢正式的說法會用”borrow”,”lend”,”loan”等這樣的字眼來表達，不過這裡這些字的用法有些些不同。
A borrow錢from B (向B借錢)
Ex: Johnson wants to borrow money from mom again.
A lend錢to B (借錢給B)
Ex: Will mother lend money to Johnson?
A loan錢to B (借錢給B)
Ex: I think only a bank would loan money to him now.
請記得，你把錢”借出去”的要用lend這個字，而”借近來”的請用borrow。
A: Mr. Chen, sorry to bother you so late
but I’m helpless. I need to borrow some money from you.
B: No problem! Anytime.
