I believe lawyerspeak has three separate concepts of "ownership":

- usus, the right to enjoy the thing,

- fructus, tge right to reap the fruits from the thing

- and abusus, the right to sell, alter or destroy the thing.

To "own" something generally means all of the above, althought it might not always be the case: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usufruct
