都表示“租赁”,lease 和 rent 的用法可不一样

谈到租赁,我们经常能看到lease和rent两个单词,但对两个单词的使用情景并不是十分清楚。

某种程度上,lease和rent都属于法律层面的术语,实际使用中要注意两者的区别,特别是在现实生活中签约时。

 

 

首先,lease所谈论的是允许某人使用你的公寓或汽车来换取金钱的行为

When we use Lease, we are talking about the action of allowing someone to use your apartment or car in exchange for money.

 

 

例如:

 

He wants to lease his house to a family member.
他想把他的房子租给一个家庭成员。
The lawyer advised the new property owner to lease her apartments to people with children.
律师建议新房主把她的公寓出租给有孩子的人。

 

而rent是指一段期间(通常是每个月)内使用土地或财产的付款。通俗点说,就是房租。
The word rentrefers to the payment that is made during a period (usually every month) in exchange for land or property.

 

 

例如:


I need to pay the rent by the 15th every month.
我需要每月15号前付租金。
What is the rent? It is $500 per month.
租金是多少?每月500美元。

 

从上面的讲述来看,lease和rent并没有特别大的区别;在实际生活中,应该使用rent还是lease取决于这个文件(比如说租房合同)需要多长时间审查一次

How often the document needs to be reviewed will determine if it is called a lease or rent.
