👉 (chiefly dialectal) To gather.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a peek, At this word ‘lease,’ and what it truly means, you see! The dictionary gives us a curious clue, “To gather,” it states, for me and for you. Now, “lease” isn't just gathering things with your hand, It has a different meaning across the land! Think of a rental agreement, neat and bright, Where someone pays to use something, day and night. Like renting a house, or a car so grand, You lease it for a period, understand? It's like borrowing, but with a formal key, A contract agreed upon, for all to see! So "to gather" is a hint, a starting point you find, But “lease” really means a rental of mind – Or perhaps a property, held in trust, A temporary agreement, built on just! Does that make sense? Any questions arise? Do you want me to give you some examples to help solidify this idea?
