What does LESSEE mean in Scrabble?
noun
legal
A person or company that holds property under a lease; a tenant.
A lessee is the side that pays to occupy or use something, whether a flat, a car, or business premises, on terms the owner sets out in writing. Formal agreements distinguish this role from the everyday word renter, even though both often name the same occupant in casual talk. A lessee's obligations, such as when a payment falls due or who covers repairs, come from that written agreement rather than from custom. The term shows up mainly in contracts and business documents rather than in casual conversation.
How LESSEE is used
Formal and legal; used in leases and contracts rather than everyday speech, where tenant is more common.
