free, release, set free, give off
Ce sont des armes qui libèrent autant que celle-là.
These are weapons that liberate just as much as that one.
— The Count of Monte Cristo (2024)
Ou s'ils le libèrent parce qu'ils le croiront devenu inoffensif ?
Or if they release him because they will believe he has become harmless?
— M le maudit (1931)
