Word origin

退租 (tuìzū, "move out") combines 退 (tuì, "leave") with 租 (zū, "rent"), framing departure as ending the rental arrangement.

Usage tips

  • Rental conversations use this verb for the formal end of a tenancy, so notice dates, inspection, keys, and deposit settlement can all belong to the same discussion.
