"Lodgers" Natural Recordings by Native Speakers
Lodgers are people who pay to live temporarily in someone else's home, usually in a room or apartment, often for a short period of time, such as a few days, weeks, or months. This is different from renting a place from a landlord, where the renter has a longer-term agreement.
The word "lodged" is a verb that means to put or place something in a particular position, often in a firm or secure manner. It can also mean to be stuck or jammed in a place, often because of being forced or squeezed into it. For example, "She lodged her key in the door jam to keep it from closing."
Lodgements refers to the act of paying or deposition of something, especially a sum of money, into a bank or an account. It can also refer to the state of being or remaining in a place or position, especially for a specified period of time.
Lodging refers to the provision of temporary accommodation or residence for a person, typically in a hotel, inn, boarding house, or other type of establishment that offers temporary housing. It can also refer to the cost or price of such accommodation. For example: "I booked a room at the hotel for one night, including lodging."
