Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: What is the difference between born and borne. Can anyone cite any solid examples?.
Student:
'Born' means to be brought into the world, e.g. as a baby. I was born at an early age. 'Borne' is listed in the OED as meaning carried, sustained, or endured. Nowadays it mostly commonly seen in phrases like 'airborne', e.g. The virus is airborne. In the 'endured' sense: This terrible customer service cannot be borne! There is also a similar word, bourne: this has a totally different meaning, namely, a small stream.
