A quick definition of use:

Term: Use

Definition: Use means to put something into practice or to employ it. In legal terms, use refers to the right to enjoy the benefits of a property, even if the owner of the right does not own the property. This means that use is the same as benefit.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Use means to put into practice or to employ something. In a legal context, the most common meaning of the term “use,” is the right to enjoy the benefits of real estate or personal property (but primarily used in reference to real estate), irrespective of whether the owner of the right owns the property. Therefore, in this context, “use” is equivalent to benefit.

Example 1: I will use my new camera to take pictures of my vacation.

Example 2: John has the right to use the swimming pool in his apartment complex, even though he doesn't own the pool.

Example 3: The company has the right to use the trademarked logo on their products, as they have obtained permission from the owner of the trademark.

These examples illustrate the definition of "use" as putting something into practice or employing it. In the legal context, the examples show how "use" refers to the right to enjoy the benefits of property, even if the owner of the right does not own the property itself.
