Yes we have two different words for "free":
- grátis: without payment, usually related to freeware and also when you 
buy a product and you pay for 2 and get another one "grátis".
- livre: without barriers, like free as a penguim.

Gratis is also used in the Netherland and Belgium.

Cheers,

Mauricio
