He didn't loan it in the American version, he gave it to them to get it off his hands because he felt guilty about Cedric's death.

Wait what? There are actual story differences between UK and US releases?

It's not a dramatic change it's just different language and wording in some place.

Dumblebore example:

American version: Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

UK: Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the bloody light.

You know, I used to live in England, and it's funny how when Americans are trying to talk like us, they say all these phrases...some of them are accurate, but there are many that I hear here in America more than I ever heard them there.

Are you serious? Bloody Hell!

Being French, I often find it hard to keep up with the British accent. For instance, I tried to watch the British version of "The Office" and I miss at least half the jokes because I can't follow. So the only thing I can do when I attempt to mimick the British accent (and fail miserably at it) is to thorw in a couple of "bloody this" and "bloody that" in there.

"Bloody" is actually frequently used...but a lot of other phrases I hear aren't really all that popular.
