テナント
てなんと
noun
tenant; shop occupying rented space
1.
tenant; shop or business renting space in a building
A shop, restaurant, or business that rents space within a larger building such as a department store, shopping mall, or office building. From English 'tenant.' In Japanese, this word emphasizes the commercial tenant rather than residential renters.
このビルにはテナントが十店舗入っている。
This building has ten tenant shops.
一階のテナントが撤退した。
The first-floor tenant has moved out.
駅前のビルでテナントを募集しているので、カフェを開こうかと考えている。
They're looking for tenants in the building in front of the station, so I'm thinking of opening a café.
From English 'tenant,' but in Japanese the word primarily refers to commercial tenants — shops and businesses that rent space in a larger building. Residential renters are typically called 借り主 or 入居者, not テナント.
