Question 1774) - How does a man free his slave?

A: If a sane adult says to his slave/slave-girl, ?You are a free person/ you are set free/ you are freed/ you are made free/ I have freed you/ you are manumitted," then the slave is free; whether the owner meant manumission or not, because these words are explicit manumission and do not depend on intention.
