It's free as in freedom—think free speech, not free beer
The word free in the first sentence has two potential meanings in English.
1. Something is free, if it doesn't cost anything ie. you don't have
to pay for it.
2. Something is free, if it isn't controlled or constrained by
something else.
hello manuel,
thank you for the explanatory reply. Now the thing is more plain for me. But
I need more an explanation: in the expression think free speech, not free
beer the word think is a verb else a noun? What is is is meaning?

Another way to put it would be, think of free as in free speech,
don't think of free as in free beer
