Siéntete libre de comer

Feel free to eat. Seems a really odd use a command to tell someone to feel free to eat. Plus, sentirSE to feel it, maybe it's almost idiomatic? Does it work? Gracias.

just by itself it's weird. It may work better if it's part of a longer sentence, for example: siéntete libre de comer lo que quieras - feel free to eat whatever you want. It is a correct construction.
Myself, I'd probably say: come lo que quieras, con confianza. - go ahead, eat whatever you want.

It sounds really strange to me to say "siéntete libre". Perhaps, "empieza a comer si quieres".

I agree it sounds strange. But it's from a group called "RedlineSP" a subtitle group that appears to be from Spain and uses OS, VOS sometimes, so I wonder if it's just odd but works or if it's wrong completely. - jeezzle, Sep 12, 2011
