Many users are not fully aware of the distinction between the kernel, which is Linux, and the whole system, which they also call “Linux”. The ambiguous use of the name doesn't promote understanding.
Maraming gumagamit ang hindi lubos na nakakaalam ng kaibhan ng kernel, at ito ay ang Linux, at ang buong sistema, na tinatawag ring “Linux”. Ang hindi malinaw na paggamit ng pangalan ay hindi nagpapakilala nang pagkaintindi.
