Ubuntu (the name of a popular Linux distribution), literally means "humanness" - in what language?
Zulu
Hindi
Arabic
Hebrew
Ubuntu is a Nguni Bantu term roughly translating to "human kindness." It is an idea from the Southern African region which means literally "human-ness", and is often translated as "humanity towards others", but is often used in a more philosophical sense to mean "the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity."
