Usage notes
Common translations of the word's second sense is ‘property’; however, the technical usage is narrower and does not allow for it to be used with the same objects as these terms are in English.

Outside of legal usage other areas (e.g. business administration) may use the term for things that German law does not regard as ownership. So terms like , not referring to corporeal objects, are strictly translationese and a misnomer and do not occur in the internal legal systems of the German-speaking countries, except as a comparative law and international law catchword. While an economic work might refer to a, legal works would refer to a , as denotes any legal position as English  does.

In either cases however, the corresponding verbs and  are not in common use anymore but stilted; the former, for the technical sense of owning a corporeal object, is suppleted by.
