to help or to applaud Could you give/lend me a hand with my chores? They gave him a hand as he was receiving the award.

The other meaning you are looking for is to 'applaud'. Game show presenter says" Thank you for playing! Everybody, lets give him a (big) hand!"

Hi Nazar, is 'Sb' someone's name? You might say, "[I will] give Sb a hand" or ask someone to "go and give Sb a hand", but I don't think I have ever heard anyone use the other expression.
