Hello everyone 
I’m just studying the song ‘needy’ from Ariana Grande on the theory tab ( can be seen here : needy by Ariana Grande Chords, Melody, and Music Theory Analysis - Hooktheory ) .
the song has a really interesting chord progression. As you can see on the screen shot that i joined, the second chord seems to be what i call an altered chord but i don’t understand how it is caracterised here with the name ‘phdm’.
At first i thought it was for the phrygian dominant but the 4 of the phrygian dominant is not the same chord.
Same for the first chord, what ‘bor’ meaning ? ‘borrowed’ ?
Thank you in advance !
