Summary/Abstract: This article was written as a result of my participation in the project EUROJOS: I had to discribe the concept of "freedom” in the worldview of the Byelorussian language speakers. Three types of data are discussed in the article: vocabulary, corpus (texts) and psycholinguistic data (quiz). The cognitive definition of the ``freedom” concept is modeled on the basis of these data in accordance with the methodological instructions of the EUROJOS project.
