Hab und Gut: What is the difference between "Hab" and "Gut"?

Question

In the phrase "All sein Hab und Gut", what exactly is "Hab" and what is "Gut"?I realise that both refer to private property of some kind, but are the two distinct concepts? Is "Gut" real property (like land) or titles (like something owed to the person) and "Hab" personal property (like clothes)?

Answer 1

Hello,

"Hab und Gut" is a German expression and means: Everything someone owns, their belongings.
