rental apartment
An apartment that you have not bought, but for which you pay money to a landlord each month.
Nach langer Suche haben wir endlich eine schöne Mietwohnung im Stadtzentrum gefunden.
After a long search, we finally found a beautiful rental apartment in the city center.
The word is made up of 'die Miete' (rent) and 'die Wohnung' (apartment). So it literally describes an apartment for which you pay rent.
Eine bezahlbare Mietwohnung in der Innenstadt zu finden, ist nicht einfach.
Finding an affordable rental apartment downtown is not easy.
Pay attention to the difference with the preposition 'in': movement into the apartment requires the accusative, while being in the apartment requires the dative.
Wir ziehen nächsten Monat in eine neue Mietwohnung.
We are moving into a new rental apartment next month.
Common verbs in connection with a rental apartment are 'eine Mietwohnung suchen' (to look for a rental apartment), 'finden' (to find), 'mieten' (to rent), or 'kündigen' (to terminate the lease).
Er muss seine alte Mietwohnung bis Ende des Monats kündigen.
He has to terminate the lease on his old rental apartment by the end of the month.
