The Free Art License grants the right to freely copy, [[Cambridge-Dictionary:distribute|distribute]], and [[Cambridge-Dictionary:transform|transform]] creative works without [[Cambridge-Dictionary:infringe|infringing]] the author's [[Cambridge-Dictionary:rights|rights]].
The Free Art License grants the right to freely copy, {{Cambridge-Dictionary|distribute}}, and {{Cambridge-Dictionary|transform}} creative works without {{Cambridge-Dictionary|infringe|infringing}} the author's {{Cambridge-Dictionary|rights}}.
