תקופת השכירות נגמרת עם פינוי המושכר.

תקופת השכירות is a construct chain in Hebrew.

• תקופה = period
• השכירות = the rental / the tenancy

When תקופה becomes the first word in a construct chain, it changes to תקופת, giving:

• תקופת השכירות = the rental period / the tenancy period

This is a very common Hebrew pattern:

• ספר = book
• ספר התלמיד = the student’s book

So here, תקופת השכירות means the period of the tenancy.

This happens because of the construct state (סמיכות).

A noun often changes form when it is followed by another noun that specifies it. So:

• תקופה = a period
• תקופת... = period of ...

This is not a special meaning change; it is just the grammatical form used before another noun.

So:

• תקופה ארוכה = a long period
• תקופת השכירות = the rental period

In a construct chain, definiteness is usually marked on the second noun, not the first.

So:

• תקופת שכירות = a rental period
• תקופת השכירות = the rental period

Even though תקופת itself does not have ה־, the whole phrase is definite because השכירות is definite.

That is why התקופת השכירות is not correct.

Because the subject is תקופת השכירות, and the head noun is תקופת, from תקופה, which is feminine singular.

Hebrew verbs in the present tense agree with the subject in gender and number.

So:

• תקופה נגמרת = a period ends
• התקופה נגמרת = the period ends

If the subject were masculine singular, you would expect something like נגמר instead.

Yes. נגמרת is the present-tense feminine singular form of נגמר, from the root ג־מ־ר, meaning to end / to be finished.

In Modern Hebrew, present-tense forms often look like adjectives, but they function as verbs too.

So:

• הסרט נגמר = the movie ends / is over
• הפגישה נגמרת = the meeting ends
• תקופת השכירות נגמרת = the rental period ends

Depending on context, נגמרת can feel like:

• ends
• is ending
• comes to an end

Yes, definitely.

• נגמרת = ends / is over / comes to an end
• מסתיימת = ends / concludes

Both work, but the nuance can be slightly different:

• נגמרת can sound a bit more everyday and direct.
• מסתיימת can sound a bit more formal or neutral.

So:

• תקופת השכירות נגמרת עם פינוי המושכר
• תקופת השכירות מסתיימת עם פינוי המושכר

Both are natural, especially in formal or legal-style language.

Literally, yes, עם usually means with. But in this sentence it is better understood as:

• upon
• when
• at the time of
• with the occurrence of

So עם פינוי המושכר means something like:

• upon vacating the leased property
• when the property is vacated

This is a common kind of formal usage in Hebrew.

פינוי is a verbal noun (roughly like evacuation, clearing, or vacating) from the verb לפנות.

Depending on context, לפנות can mean:

• to clear out
• to vacate
• to evacuate
• to turn

In this sentence, פינוי means the act of vacating or vacating.

So:

• פינוי הדירה = vacating the apartment
• פינוי המושכר = vacating the leased property

This kind of noun is very common in formal, legal, and administrative Hebrew.

המושכר is a legal/formal word meaning the rented property, the leased premises, or that which is rented out.

It comes from the verb family related to renting/leasing. In legal Hebrew, מושכר is often used as a noun, not just as a participle.

So:

• המושכר = the leased property / the rental unit / the premises being rented

In everyday speech, people might more often say:

• הדירה = the apartment
• הנכס = the property

But in contracts and legal language, המושכר is very common.

Because there is no direct object here.

The structure is:

• תקופת השכירות = subject
• נגמרת = verb
• עם פינוי המושכר = prepositional phrase

The word את is used before a definite direct object, but here עם introduces a prepositional phrase, not a direct object.

So you would not say את פינוי המושכר in this sentence.

Yes, this word order is normal, especially in formal writing.

Current order:

• תקופת השכירות נגמרת עם פינוי המושכר

This is straightforward: subject + verb + prepositional phrase.

You could also see slightly different formal phrasings, for example:

• תקופת השכירות מסתיימת עם פינוי המושכר
• תקופת השכירות תסתיים עם פינוי המושכר = the rental period will end upon vacating the property
• עם פינוי המושכר, תקופת השכירות נגמרת = upon vacating the property, the rental period ends

But the original sentence is perfectly normal.

Yes, it sounds fairly formal and somewhat legal/contract-like.

The clues are:

• תקופת השכירות instead of a simpler everyday phrase
• פינוי as a verbal noun
• המושכר as a legal term for the leased property

In everyday speech, someone might say something simpler, like:

• השכירות נגמרת כשמפנים את הדירה = the rental ends when the apartment is vacated
• החוזה נגמר כשעוזבים את הדירה = the contract ends when leaving the apartment

So the original sentence is very natural in a contract or legal notice.

A natural pronunciation is:

Tkufat ha-skhirut nigmeret im pinuy ha-muskar.

A slightly more detailed breakdown:

• תקופת = tku-FAT
• השכירות = ha-s-khi-RUT
• נגמרת = nig-ME-ret
• עם = im
• פינוי = pi-NUY
• המושכר = ha-mus-KAR

Because Hebrew is often written without vowels, learners may need to memorize these pronunciations from context or exposure.
