releases
Sets something loose
Releases covers acts of letting go or setting free.
A prisoner is released from custody; a company releases a new product to the public; a musician drops a new release.
To release pressure is to relieve it: She released her grip on the railing.
In legal contexts, a release is a document surrendering a claim: Sign the liability release before the tour begins.
