Il y a dilution de l'avoir des actionnaires lorsqu'une entreprise émet de nouvelles actions aux investisseurs et lorsque les détenteurs d'options d'achat d'actions exercent leur droit d'acheter des actions. Une quantité supérieure d'actions dans les mains d'un nombre plus élevé de personnes signifie que chaque détenteur d'actions ordinaires existantes détient un pourcentage plus faible ou dilué de l'entreprise.

Common of pasture appurtenant is a right annexed to certain lands, by virtue of which the owner of those lands feeds cattle on the soil of another person; it differs from the right of common appendant in all the characteristics which arise from the connection of the latter with the socage tenure of ancient arable land in a manor; it may, therefore, be held by holders of estates formerly copyhold or by strangers to a manor, and may arise by grant or prescription since "Quia Emptores", 1289, and is not necessarily confined to such beasts as are generally commonable but may extend to swine, goats or geese.(Jowitt's, 2nd ed., 1977, p. 387)
