It is known that there are non-amenable groups not containing $F_2$, the free group on two generators. We can even have that [every 2-generated subgroup is finite][1]. But is there a non-amenable group $G$ where for some $n$, $G$ is length-$n$ unfree in the following sense? >**Definition**. $G$ is **length-$n$ unfree** if for all $a,b\in G$, there exist words $u\ne v$ of length $n$ over the alphabet $\{a,b\}$ such that $u=v$ in $G$.
