English Synonyms and Antonyms
freedom
In general terms, it may be said that freedom is absolute, liberty relative; freedom is the absence of restraint, liberty is primarily the removal or avoidance of restraint; in its broadest sense, it is the state of being exempt from the domination of others or from restricting circumstances. Freedom and liberty are constantly interchanged; the slave is set at liberty, or gains his freedom; but freedom is the nobler word. Independence is said of states or nations, freedom and liberty of individuals; the independence of the United States did not secure liberty or freedom to its slaves. Liberty keeps quite strictly to the thought of being clear of restraint or compulsion; freedom takes a wider range, applying to other oppressive influences; thus, we speak of freedom from annoyance or intrusion. License is, in its limited sense, a permission or privilege granted by adequate authority, a bounded liberty; in the wider sense, license is an ignoring and defiance of all that should restrain, and a reckless doing of all that individual caprice or passion may choose to do — a base and dangerous counterfeit of freedom. Compare ALLOW; PERMISSION.

How to use freedom in a sentence?
I urge all of you living in Florida to join the fight -- or join us in California, where we still believe in freedom : Freedom of speech, freedom to choose, freedom from hate, and the freedom to love.
I urge all of you living in Florida to join the fight -- or join us in California, where we still believe in freedom : Freedom of speech, freedom to choose, freedom from hate, and the freedom to love, don't let them take your freedom.
Human rights: The only human rights any person should ever have is the rights that are just, morally right. For example the freedom of speech, the freedom of expression, the freedom of the press. Those are just a few rights every one should have, however even these rights need to be used in just ways. People can't run around doing whatever they want just because they have freedom, otherwise you get violence, crime, sin, injustice, tragedy, suffering, death and Hell.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider, Northern Exposure, Cicely, 1992:
We hold in our hands, the most precious gift of all: Freedom. The freedom to express our art. Our love. The freedom to be who we want to be. We are not going to give that freedom away and no one shall take it from us!
The Hong Kong government is stifling Hong Kong people’s freedom on the Internet, an open Internet has always been the cornerstone of freedom in a place. Disrupting Internet freedom also undermines the flow of information, freedom of communication, and freedom of the press.
