Hello Sarah May,

Welcome to our SpanishDict community forum smile

You asked:

I'm in a special class at school that has mostly native speakers and I just would like to know how to ask to borrow a pencil

You could say:

¿Me podría prestar un lápiz, por favor? or ¿Podría prestarme un lápiz, por favor?

= Could you lend me a pencil, please?

You can either place the indirect object pronoun before a verb or attach it to the infinitive form of a verb.

There are other ways to ask to borrow a pencil which Guillermo has shown you.

I hope this helps smile

Corrijan mi español si es necesario, por favor smile
