A subset Y of a free completely regular semigroup FCRx freely generates a free completely regular subsemigroup if and only if (i) each -class of FCRx contains at most one element of Y, (ii) {Dy;y ∊ Y} freely generates a free subsemilattice of the free semilattice FCRx/), and (iii) Y consists of non-idempotents. A similar description applies in free objects of some subvarieties of the variety of all completely regular semigroups.
