Synonyms & antonyms
- Synonym土地とちNeutralThe everyday default word, far broader than 「地所」: it covers a plot of land or soil, and can also mean a locality or region.
- Synonym所有地しょゆうちWrittenWritten/formal: land one has ownership of; the emphasis falls on ownership and who the land belongs to.
- Related区画くかくWrittenWritten/formal: a section divided off from a larger tract, as in 「分譲地の一区画」; the focus is on the plotted block itself.
For land as property or an estate, 「地所」 is the old-fashioned word, now mostly in 「地所持ち」 and company names; use 「土地」 in everyday speech and 「区画」 for a plotted-off section.
