how about translating these sentences ?

India is free
India got freedom
India is Independent
India has Independent Laws
Indian society is a free society


Software is Free
Software gives Freedom

Citizens are Free
Citizens are having Freedom

Company gives freedom with thier product
Companies product is free

When it tried to translate what happened was we got many contexts and
another problem is that we feel something and to express that, sometimes we
may not get exact words so we use words with contexts

then what is the basic problem with the translation what i felt is that we
will not think in one language and write in one language , when we start
thinking in different languages and write in different languages we mix up
the things because of which we listen sentences and use sentences by mixing
both the languages like the radio jockeys do .. resulting in a bit confused
translations

so may be what we feel will be write and when i say that Free Software i
will be knowing the context and many would be knowing the context that i am
talking so i would use "ಮುಕ್ತ ತಂತ್ರಾಂಶ " to say "free software "

also i have no problem using in the following way
"ಮುಕ್ತ / ಸ್ವತಂತ್ರ  ತಂತ್ರಾಂಶ " to say "free software " and those who feel
that the word ಸ್ವತಂತ್ರ could read that and those who want the other one
ಮುಕ್ತ will also be happy

but i am not yet convinced to to not to use the word ಮುಕ್ತ
anyways we will usually use many words while advocating about free software
