Usage Note ! Property, any object or right that can be owned. Ownership involves possession. Ownership in modern societies implies the right to use and dispose of property and it implies governmental protection of such rights. Property is usually obtained by purchase, inheritance, or gift. Ownership may be public or private. Public ownership is by the government. Private ownership is by an individual, a group of individuals, a corporation, or some other form of organization. Property is categorized in two types: real and personal. Real property is the land and anything firmly attached to it, such as buildings and the minerals beneath the surface. Personal property can be divided into tangible ['txndZqb(q)l] (відчутний, матеріальний, дотиковий) and intangible property. Tangible property exists physically. Intangible personal property has no physical existence but can be legally owned; an example is patent rights.The concept of private property has been challenged by political philosophies such as communism and socialism. According to Communist doctrine, real property and most personal property should be publicly owned–that is, the state should own the means of industrial production and all wealth-generating personal property. Socialist societies do not generally hold that all property must be owned by the state.

Synonyms: asseverate (свідчити категорично), declare (оголошувати), affirm (підтверджувати), aver (твердити), avow(відверто визнавати і виправдовувати). These verbs all mean to make a positive statement. To assert is to state one's opinion confidently but often without proof to support it: "I have endeavored to assert nothing but what I had good authority for" (William Sewel). Asseverate connotes sober (стриманий, розсудливий, тверезий) sincerity of assertion: "The taxpayer also asseverates that his return from Greece proves conclusively that his intentions were and are honorable" (Daily Report for Executives). Declare has the approximate force of assert but may suggest formality of statement and authority in the speaker: Congress declared that it would reduce the budget deficit. Affirm and aver stress the speaker's confidence in the validity of the statement: Scientists cannot affirm the existence of life on other planets. She averred that solitude was necessary for creative work. Avow implies frank and open acknowledgment or admission: "thinks the book succeeds in achieving its avowed purpose: to explain how the Court's current role evolved through history" (Tony Mauro).
