- What is the difference between "let me free" and "set me free"?
I've heard these phrases in the song and wondered about the difference between them.
Best answer
Hi Lily. The correct structure is "set someone free", as in release / liberate someone, such as a hostage, or in the case of songs, more of an abstract meaning, like release me from your love. You can also say "let someone go", which has the same meaning as "set someone free". Example: He let the captives go. / He set the captives free. "Let me free" is not technically correct, as far as I know. It would be useful to know which songs you have heard it in. An important thing to remember about songs is that technically correct language isn't always used, because the focus is on creativity and for the lyrics to flow well with the song. For example, in the case of "she doesn't work", in songs you often hear something like "she don't work", which is incorrect, but it makes the song flow better.
