不要混淆hire, rent和let。表示短期租用某物时，英国英语用hire，而美国英语则更常用rent。如，He was unable to hire another car（他没钱再多租一辆车了），He rented a car for the weekend（他租了辆车度周末）。表示长期租用某物并分期支付费用时，要用rent，如，the apartment he had rented（他租住的公寓），He rented a TV（他租了台电视机）。也可以用rent表示将房子或房间租给别人住并收取租金，如，We rented our house to an American professor（我们把房子租给了一位美国教授）。出租房子或房间也可用let，如，They were letting a room to a school teacher（他们把一个房间租给了一名老师）。
