The classifications (each pair recurring throughout the course):
1. Immovable (real) / movable (personal): land and things attached to it vs. chattels — the distinction governing formalities (registration for immovables; delivery for movables), limitation, remedies;
2. Corporeal / incorporeal: tangible things vs. rights as objects (copyright, goodwill, a debt, an easement) — the IP unit's foundation;
3. Private / public (State) / common: individual ownership; State ownership (forest, government land — ailani jagga); commons (pastures, community forests — the community- forestry regime);
4. Movable further: consumables/non-consumables; fungible/specific; ** choses in possession / choses in action**;
5. Immovable further (the Nepali statutory taxonomy): land (agricultural/residential (ghaderi)/commercial by use); buildings; hereditary and acquired property (the family-law division that drives partition); guthi land (by tenure);
6. Trust property — owned in law by the trustee, held for beneficiaries (Unit 10).
