Does the rent include bills?

This is something you might say if you are trying to rent somewhere to live.

Rent = the money you pay each week/month.

Bills = the money you have to pay for utilities (electricity, gas, water, telephone, etc.)

You are asking if you have to pay bills in addition to the rent or if it is one all-inclusive price.

Answer: Yes: you don't pay for bills. No: you have to pay extra for bills.

Something you might hear in a flat-share is 'we split the bills between us,' which means that the bills are divided between the tenants and everyone pays an equal amount.

This is an example of a question in the present tense: does + the rent / it + infinitive.

Does + the rent + include (bills)?

This sentence is an example of 'do' in questions, houses, renting a flat, money.
