I kind of had the notion that modulations were like Larry described and more abrupt changes of key were called tonal shifts or something like that.
Purely personal, but I have never liked the "borrowing" terminology. Pointing out the use of the chord in a parallel mode makes it understandable, I know. I just think of it as there are moves outside of the diatonic chords. I mean, if you borrow the bVII chord, do you return it to the dorian, aolian, or mixolydian mode? What is it supposed to do in the meantime, while your major key has it?
