I learned from a vocabulary book that "real" in "real estate" means "royal" in Spanish. In ancient time, land used to belong to the royal court, which resulted in the term.
I happened to wonder about the meaning of "Real" in "Real Madrid", the spanish soccer team. I used to think "Real" means "real, actual, the best", but it seem to mean "royal" now. What do you think?
