@Sonata_Ideoma Examples are, 'entitled to this money from their will'
'entitled to my rights,'
'entitled to my property,'
'entitled to a court hearing and a lawyer.'
You should be entitled to something that (rightfully) belongs to you.
That is the formal (polite) use, when they are deserving.

However if you describe a person as entitled, it is not a good quality or characteristic.
Someone who believes they should be receiving something, that they are owed special treatment - that is a spoilt way to think.

Being entitled is having the right to claim, receive, use, or do something, but unless you know from an agreement that you are rightfully 'entitled' it should not be a way to act too often.

Dictionary example: 'these entitled children think the world revolves around them.'
