What is a one-character translation of the English word "Freedom"? I've been trying to find a single-character translation of the word "freedom," but I can't seem to find one anywhere.

The best translation I can find is, of course, 自由, which seems to be a fairly modern thing.

My question has now become this: Is there an ancient word for "freedom"? Is there a 文言文 word? If not, why not?
Question: 古文中哪个字有自由不受约束的意思啊？ (Gǔwén zhōng nǎge zì yǒu zìyóu bu shòu yuēshù de yìsi a) - Which word in Ancient Chinese means Free and/or Unfettered?

It appears there aren't single words, in modern and ancient Chinese, that have a denotative meaning of "Freedom". There are however, connotative words that can mean "free" or "to set free" in context.

放 (Fàng) - Put, Release, Free, Lay 


  放出 (Fàngchū) - Release, Set Free
  
  放心 (Fàngxīn) - Free your heart, don't worry 
  
  放松 (Fàngsōng) - Set loose, relax




More ancient words for "free":


  恣 (Zì) - Do as one pleases, free (From: 恣肆 (Zìsì) - Unrestrained)
  
  逍 (Xiāo) - Leisurely (From: 逍遥 (Xiāoyáo) - Free and unfettered)
  
  逸 (Yì) - Free, Leisurely (Common in names)
