Yes, "lend me your ear" is a metaphor. It is not asking for a physical transfer of an ear, but rather a request for someone's attention or willingness to listen.
All hands on deck. Lend me your ear.

It means to get your full attention and listen to what he/she is going to say
LEND-as in "lend me your ear"and-LERas in "learn" (without the -n)Also the spelling is either Laendler (-ae-) orLändler (-ä-).
Shakespeare used this in his play Julius Caesar.
"lend me .."
To help somebody.
they lend ------------------------------- The answer above is wrong. Not necessarily "lend". Prestan can also mean provide. Though "lend" and "provide" can mean the same, they have a different meaning. Also, by the word "provide" you can say, "Prestan Atencion." Prestan, in this sentence means provide. But providing attention sounds a tad weird. Therefore, "Pretsan Atencion" can mean "Pay Attention". Really, Prestan is more of a "provide" than a "lend". Therefore, the answer above is incomplete and inaccurate. -Sang Joon Park
