Please search, there are a number of threads on this.

That said, here are some:

Bean

NeoOffice

There's one that's already on your mac called TextEdit.

Microsoft Word is is a proprietary word processing application from Microsoft. It is not a generic software classification. It is not free.

You appear to want a free word processing application that can read and write Microsoft Word documents. There are several:

• Text Edit (already installed on your Mac)
• OpenOffice.org
• NeoOffice (Java-based version of OpenOffice.org)

Pages, the word processing application in the iWork suite, is not free.
