A quick definition of squatter:

Term: SQUATTER

Definition: A squatter is someone who lives on a piece of land or property without permission from the owner or the government. Sometimes, the government allows people to live on public land if they follow certain rules and can eventually own the land. But if someone just moves onto someone else's property without asking, they are a squatter.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A squatter is someone who lives on a property without any legal right or permission. They may also be someone who lives on public land with the government's permission to eventually own the land if they meet certain conditions.

Example 1: John moved into an abandoned house without the owner's permission. He is now considered a squatter.

Example 2: The government allowed a group of people to live on public land as long as they built their own homes and maintained the land. These people are considered squatters until they meet the government's conditions and can legally own the land.

These examples illustrate how a squatter is someone who lives on a property without legal permission or ownership. In the first example, John has no right to live in the abandoned house, making him a squatter. In the second example, the group of people are living on public land with the government's permission, but they are still considered squatters until they meet the conditions to legally own the land.
