Real estate’s meaning, in its most simple definition, is land and all the things on it that are inseparable from it.

Answer:

the word real is derived from Latin, meaning actual or genuine and estate is a English translation of the old French word "estat" meaning status.now we use the word estate to describe owned property consisting of house or land.
