Hi,


The word "lodging," as a noun, meaning 'a room in someone's house which you live in and pay rent for' is labelled as "old-fashioned" on some dictionaries.


I was wondering what the modern term is.


Please kindly shed some light.



Best Wishes

Hi,

You could say 'He lives in a rented room'.
