Talk:lessee
An anonymous editor added this text to the first definition:
- However, more recently this usage of lessee is regarded as incorrect and is being replaced in legal documents by the term "tenant". Inappropriate use of the French past participle construction "-ee" results in a juxtaposition of the direct and indirect objects. This implies that the tenants themselves are being rented out, rather than the property.
Can we verify this? Does it merit a Usage note? --EncycloPetey 23:57, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
