Ubuntu is a South African ethical ideology focusing on people's allegiances and relations with each other. The word comes from the Zulu and Xhosa languages. Ubuntu (pronounced "oo-BOON-too") is seen as a traditional African concept, is regarded as one of the founding principles of the new republic of South Africa and is connected to the idea of an African Renaissance.

Ubuntu 是一个南非的民族观念，着眼于人们之间的忠诚和联系。该词来自于祖鲁语和科萨语。Ubuntu（发音"oo-BOON-too"--“乌班图”）被视为非洲人的传统理念，也是建立新南非共和国的基本原则之一，与非洲复兴的理想密切相关。

A rough translation of the principle of Ubuntu is "humanity towards others". Another translation could be: "the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity".

Ubuntu 精神的大意是“人道待人”（对他人仁慈）。另一种翻译可以是：“天下共享的信念，连接起每个人”。

"A person with ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed."

“具有 ubuntu 精神的人心胸开阔，乐于助人，见贤思齐而不忌妒贤能，因为他/她拥有适度的自信，而这源自如下认识：自己乃是属于一个更大的整体，当他人受到伤害或死去时，当他人受到折磨或压迫时，这个整体就会消失。”

However, this means more than just being available at zero cost. The philosophy of free software is that people should be free to use software in all the ways that are "socially useful". "Free software" doesn't just mean that you shouldn't have to pay for it, it also means that you should be able to use the software in any way you wish: the code that makes up free software is available for anyone to download, change, fix, and use in any way. So apart from the fact that free software is often available without charge, this freedom also has technical advantages: when programs are developed, the hard work of others can be used and built upon. With non-free software, this cannot happen and when programs are developed, they have to start from scratch. For this reason the development of free software is fast, efficient and exciting!

然而，这并不仅仅意味着零成本，自由软件的理念是人们应该以所有“对社会有用”的方式自由地使用软件。“自由软件”并不只意味着您不需要为其支付费用，它也意味着您可以以自己想要的方式使用软件：任何人可以任意方式下载、修改、修正和使用组成自由软件的代码。因此，除去自由软件常以免费方式提供这一事实外，这种自由也有着技术上的优势：进行程序开发时，就可以使用其他人的成果或以此为基础进行开发。对于非自由软件而言，这点就无法实现，进行程序开发时，人们总得白手起家。基于上述原因，自由软件的开发是迅捷、高效和激动人心的！

Based on Debian, one of the most widely acclaimed, technologically advanced, and well-supported distributions, Ubuntu aims to create a distribution that provides an up-to-date and coherent Linux system for desktop and server computing. Ubuntu includes a number of carefully selected packages from the Debian distribution and retains its powerful package management system which allows easy installation and clean removal of programs. Unlike most distributions that ship with a large amount of software that may or may not be of use, Ubuntu's list of packages is reduced to a number of important applications of high quality.

Debian 是一个广受称道、技术先进且有着良好支持的发行版，Ubuntu 正是基于 Debian 之上，旨在创建一个可以为桌面和服务器提供一个最新且一贯的 Linux 系统。Ubuntu 囊括了大量精挑细选自 Debian 发行版的软件包，同时保留了 Debian 强大的软件包管理系统，以便简易的安装或彻底的删除程序。与大多数发行版附带数量巨大的可用可不用的软件不同，Ubuntu 的软件包清单只包含那些高质量的重要应用程序。
