Words of limitation are words which define the nature of the interest acquired. They are called words of limitation because it is the grantor's right to limit an estate as he sees fit, and the effect of the words is generally called a "limitation".

Words of inheritance are words of limitation indicating the character of the estate granted (or devised) ... Many jurisdictions have done away with the necessity of using technical words limiting estates in land, to the end that a fee estate may be created without words of inheritance.

Exactly why the words "and his heirs" where necessary to create an estate in fee simple is unclear.... was, however, necessary to use the plural word ’heirs" because if the grant were to a person and his "heir", that word could refer only to the person who would be the heir at the death of the grantee, so as not to be a word of inheritance or limitation. In such a case, at common law, the grantee would get only a life estate.(Anger and Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, pp. 101-102).  1, record 27, English, - words%20of%20inheritance

As in the case of the fee simple, at common law the rules for the creation of the estate tail had to be strictly observed in the case of "inter vivos" dispositions. In the case of wills the rules were more relaxed.... In England, these rules were very much simplified by the "Conveyancing and Law of Property Act". This legislation was adopted in the Canadian provinces. The several statutes provided in effect that, in a deed limiting an estate tail, it was no longer necessary to use the words... "heirs female of the body", it being sufficient to use the words...

As in the case of the fee simple, at common law the rules for the creation of the estate tail had to be strictly observed in the case of "inter vivos" dispositions. In the case of wills the rules were more relaxed.... In England, these rules were very much simplified by the "Conveyancing and Law of Property Act". This legislation was adopted in the Canadian provinces. The several statutes provided in effect that, in a deed limiting an estate tail, it was no longer necessary to use the words "heirs of the body"..., it being sufficient to use the words "in tail"... or to use words sufficiently indicating the limitation intended.(Anger and Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, pp. 134-5).  1, record 55, English, - in%20tail

"Fee" was applied to property to denote that it had the quality of descending to the heirs of the owner for the time being if he did not dispose of it during his life or by his will, supposing he had power to do so. Thus an office or annuity in fee is one which descends to the heir of the holder for the time being on his death intestate.(Jowitt's, 2nd ed., 1977, p. 778).  1, record 58, English, - in%20fee

The Statute of "Quia Emptores" abolished rent service arising upon a conveyance in fee simple, by prohibiting subinfeudations. A ground rent in its pure form is a rent reserved to himself and his heirs by the grantor of a freehold estate in land, out of the land itself. It is not granted like an annuity or a rent charge, but is reserved out of a conveyance of the land in fee. It is a separate and distinct estate in itself and is held to be real estate with the usual characteristics of an estate in fee simple. The holder of a ground rent proper has an estate in the land itself, for the ground rent is a rent service and the grantor has a reversion. The right of distress is an incident of ground rent proper.(Cartwright, 1972, p. 805)  1, record 59, English, - ground%20rent
