+下面是两个((("shards", "number_of_shards index setting")))((("number_of_shards setting")))((("index settings", "number_of_shards"))) 最重要的设置：
 
 `number_of_shards`::
 
-    The number of primary shards that an index should have,
-    which defaults to `5`.  This setting cannot be changed
-    after index creation.
+    每个索引的主分片数，默认值是 `5` 。这个配置在索引创建后不能修改。
 
 `number_of_replicas`::
 
-    The number of replica shards (copies) that each primary shard
-    should have, which defaults to `1`.  This setting can be changed
-    at any time on a live index.
+    每个主分片的副本数，默认值是 `1` 。对于活动的索引库，这个配置可以随时修改。
 
-For instance, we could create a small index--just((("index settings", "number_of_replicas")))((("replica shards", "number_of_replicas index setting"))) one primary shard--and no replica shards with the following request:
+例如，我们可以创建只有((("index settings", "number_of_replicas")))((("replica shards", "number_of_replicas index setting"))) 一个主分片，没有副本的小索引：
