Yes you are right, I am a Chinese and Open Source does sound kinda funny. That is why sometimes we even say things like "Linux-like" when referring to Free/Open Source Software to get the idea across.
Too many tech jargons that get translated into Chinese is just plain confusing to most Chinese people.
Also it is due to cultural heritage, we Asians are always told that there is no such thing as a free lunch!
