The term 'didn't own' can be summarized by two crossword solutions: 'RENTED' and 'hadnt'. Renting is a common practice in which an individual or business pays a fee to use something for a certain period of time. This is often done with real estate, such as an apartment or house, but can also be done with cars, furniture, and other items. Hadnt is the past tense of the verb 'to have, ' which means to possess or own something. Therefore, the two crossword solutions together indicate that the person did not own the item, but instead RENTED it.
