estate
estate n. (2)状况；社会地位；社会等级；社会阶层 一个人或一个阶层的人在社会中所处的境况或地位，系该词的最广含义。例如，在中世纪英国的议会中，成员根据其社会地位分为教士、贵族、平民三个等级，称为「三级」〔three estates〕或「王国各阶层」〔estates of the realm〕；而法国的「三级会议」也就是全国各阶层代表的大会。 (3)地产权；地产；土地；供役地 指一个人在与土地的关系中所处的地位，或他相对于土地的关系，包括其对土地享有的不同种类、不同程度的权利；在口语中则引申为土地本身。在英格兰封建法中，除国王之外任何人都不能成为土地的绝对所有人，他所享有的只能是一项地产权或对土地的有限权益，由此产生了地产保有制度。在1925年《财产法》〔Law of Property Act〕生效之前，普通法上的地产权根据保有程度〔quantity of estate〕分为完全保有地产权〔estate of freehold〕与非完全保有地产权〔estate less than freehold〕两大类。其中完全保有地产权分为可继承地产权〔estate of inheritance〕与不可继承地产权〔estate not of inheritance〕。前者包括非限定继承地产权〔estate in fee simple〕、限定继承地产权〔estate in fee tail或estate tail〕和嫁资地产权〔estate in frankmarriage〕。后者又分为：１约定地产权〔convention estate〕，即通过当事人的协议设定的地产权，包括终身保有地产权〔estate for life〕和在他人生存期间保有的地产权〔estate pur autre vie〕；２法定地产权〔legal estate或estate created by construction or operation of law〕，即根据法律享有的或在法律上被承认并可强制执行的地产权，包括有后嗣可能性消失后的限定继承地产权〔estate of a tenant in tail after possibility

estate in fee simple absolute in possession
estate in fee simple absolute in possession 〈英〉完全的土地所有权 estate是地产权的总称，包括自由保有地产权〔freehold〕和租赁地产权〔leasehold〕，fee在这里的意思是可继承的〔inheritable〕，换言之，这个权利是永久的，除非他的所有人或继承人全部去世，既无遗嘱也无继承人。simple在这里的意思是可以转移给一般继承人，而对继承人的等级没有限定，以表示与另一种继承——fee tail相区别。后者是限定只能转移给直系子孙的。fee simple是土地自由保有权中的一种，是广义可继承的自由土地保有权。absolute在这里的意思是该地产权不带有任何可以终止的限定条件，即可以持续永久，以表示与一种可以终止的可继承地产权〔determinable fee simple〕的区别。后者在设立时带有一些限定条件，即如果一些特殊情况发生，地产权即告终止。in possession的意思是「现在持有权」、「即时占有」，而不是将来财产。假如有人立遗嘱把财产给乙终身享用，然后把fee simple给丙，那在乙的有生之年，丙的财产就不具备现在占有权〔in possession〕。所以fee simple absolute in possession的全部意思是：现在占有的，永久的(不带限定条件的)，广义可继承的土地自由保有权，是所有各种地产权中最强势，最有权威的一种。所以「estate in fee simple absolute in possession」的概括含义就是最完全的土地所有权。
