This week’s word is libremente lee-breh-mehn’-teh (adverb) which means freely. Here is the word used in a couple of examples:
1.) Estando en Wyoming hace algunos años me dio la oportunidad de ver una manada de caballos mesteños galopando libremente y fue algo verdaderamente mágico.
When I was in Wyoming a few years ago I was able to see a herd of mustangs galloping freely, and it was something truly magical.
2.) Una de las grandes virtudes de este país es que tenemos la oportunidad de practicar–o no practicar–cualquier religión libremente.
One of this country’s great virtues is that we can freely practice–or not practice–any religion.

great word! i like your spanish words of the week, im learning so much!
Another great Spanish word of the week! I would see this used especially in biblical contexts, such as “freely you have received; freely give. I looked up Matthew 10:8 en Espanol and it appears a different phrase is put together to communicate this verse.
I could also see it coming in handy in the same context that you mentioned; that of animals running around freely.
I love this word! I am getting to use more and more Spanish words each week with your help. Thank You!!
I appreciate the sample sentences. And may I say I am impressed at your ability to write in Spanish – those a not simple sentences!
I have been using your word of the week to teach my kids some Spanish. Its cute listening to them try to say it and then understanding what it means. Thank you!
