Since historic Cheyenne culture did not include jails, prisons or cells there was no concept of being incarcerated - and consequently no need for a Word indicating "freedom", since everyone was free all the time.

There is a verb meaning "to be wild" (nâhahe) and an expression "he or she is wild" (é-nâhahe), meaning someone out of control and not living according to the very strict Cheyenne morals, traditions and ideas of right and wrong.
