The Chinese word 房租 (fángzū) for "rent" is composed of two characters: 房 (fáng) and 租 (zū). The character 房 originally meant "house" or "room", and is composed of the radical 宀 (miàn), which represents a roof, and the phonetic component 方 (fāng). The character 租 originally meant "to hire" or "to lease", and is composed of the radical 貝 (bèi), which represents a cowrie shell (an ancient form of currency), and the phonetic component 祖 (zǔ).When combined, the characters 房 and 租 form the compound word 房租, which literally means "house rent" or "room rent". The word 房租 is used to refer to the periodic payment made by a tenant to a landlord for the use of a property, such as an apartment or a house.
