    I do suppose Linux is a Unix derivative. So you're closest. But no cigar.

    Heavily inspired by? I understand that Linux is not derived from Unix source code. But the system architecture... Is extremely similar and in many ways functionally the same.

    In art, music, literature, architecture, and ideas, something can be derivative because it inherits a form, vocabulary, conventions, conceptual framework, or design tradition from something earlier.
