Please note that some words must be reduced, because 7-zip has limited space to show long phrases in same places.
For example, benchmark window that you can call from menu Tools / Benchmark.

Also I'm not sure that mapp / katalog changes are required.
Note that there are two words in english for same thing: directory and folder.
And English Windows uses "folder". For example, in Explorer context menu: we have command: New > Folder.
So you can look Swedish version of Windows Explorer, and check what exact word is used there:
mapporkatalog. And you can use same word in translation.Hello Igor Pavlov,
I have shortened some words and made some changes to the words for the
menu Verktyg/Prestandamått (Tools/Benchmark)
to make it more understandable...
Swedish is NOT English...
It is a Nordic European language language...
In MS-DOS and the command prompt (cmd.exe) you have commands like cd
(change directory) ,dir (show directory) and md (make directory)
like for example cd / (to get to the root directory) and dir/p C: .
I and other Swedes prefer to use "katalog" (singular form of directory)
and "kataloger" (plural form of directories) instead of folder and folders
and it is used in programs like "WinMerge" (winmerge.org),"PSPad"
(pspad.com),
"SciTE"
(https://scintilla.org/SciTE.html,https://raw.githubusercontent.com/moltenform/scite-files/master/files/files/translations/locale.sv.properties),

What about Windows Explorer?
What word they use for "new folder" command?
What default name of new created folder in Explorer?
In 7-Zip we try to use same words that Windows Exporer uses.
So it can be simpler for users.
Windows Explorer (Explorer.exe) is not a very good program...
It is not a good example...
Ok, disregard my Swedish translation if you want it to be similar...
