èrent
èrent is a French word that translates to "rent" in English. It refers to the payment made by a tenant to a landlord for the use of property, typically housing or land. This payment is usually made on a regular basis, such as monthly or annually. The concept of rent is fundamental to rental agreements, which are legal contracts outlining the terms and conditions of a tenancy. These agreements typically specify the amount of rent, the due date, and any other obligations of both the tenant and landlord. Rent can also refer to the cost of using equipment or other assets for a limited time. In a broader economic context, rent can also describe any income earned in excess of what is required to keep a factor of production in use, often associated with unearned income or economic rent.
