A chord borrowed from the parallel major or minor key

				The most common usage is to borrow chords from the parallel minor to be used in the major   The altered scale degrees to look for are the minor 6th (most common) and the minor 3rd   The most common borrowed chords (in the major) are iv, iiº, bVI, and i The iv, iiº, and bVI have the minor 6th scale degree The bVI and i have a minor third scale degree

				The most common borrowed chord in a minor key is the I

				A possible borrowed chord, but one not commonly seen is the bIII in a major key

				Borrowed chords generally resolve as they would in their initial mode, following strong root movements

				Care should be taken when resolving the altered pitches
