uitleent

Uitleent is not a standard Dutch word. In most contexts it appears as a misspelling or as a non-standard inflection of the verb uitlenen. The correct infinitive is uitlenen, meaning to lend out or loan something to someone. The present tense forms are ik leen uit, jij leent uit, hij/zij leent uit, wij lenen uit, jullie lenen uit, zij lenen uit. The simple past is formed as leende uit or leenden uit, and the perfect tense uses uitgeleend (ik heb uitgeleend).

Nouns related to the concept include uitlening, which denotes the act or process of lending, and uitleen, which refers to the lending service or system. In everyday language, you also encounter uitleen as a noun describing the service where items can be borrowed, such as in libraries or rental shops. A common compound is uitleenbalie, the counter or desk where items are issued or returned.

Context and usage: uitlenen is used to describe the act of lending, while uitlening or uitleen denote the service or arrangement that allows borrowing. In libraries, the term uitleen is standard for the service and for the period during which an item may be borrowed (de uitleenperiode). In rental contexts, the same terminology applies with variations depending on the institution.

Summary: although someone might see or hear "uitleent," it is not the accepted form of a Dutch word. The correct verb is uitlenen, with related nouns uitlening and uitleen, and phrases like uitleenbalie and uitleenperiode commonly used in institutions that lend items.
