This is one of my grammar pet peeves, when someone says "I borrowed him my hammer." A lender lends, and a borrower borrows, pretty simple really.

Exactly. They're antonyms. Considering these complaints have been made on a regular basis for six years, though, is there any chance of the error being corrected?

Unless it has been updated, it never says they are using synonyms or antonyms. It's simply a hint. I believe barrow is a perfectly acceptable hint for lend.

So....you're not going to bother to correct the clue for "lend"? Borrowing a lawn mower and lending a lawn mower are two different things. One requires you to own a lawn mower. The other requires that you lack one.

Both of these have been stated before, but borrowing and lending aren't the same thing and seeds don't groan (or grown or whatever) into plants! They grow into plants.
