If using JWM Desktop .. or maybe other desktop too, in PCLOS Debian seems to be had coded english folders. The solution is to edit /etc/xdg/user-dirs.defaults file and then run make-default-folders script.
pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY pluma
… open /etc/xdg/user-dirs.defaults file and edit how you want. An example Finnish settings.
# Default settings for user directories
#
# The values are relative pathnames from the home directory and
# will be translated on a per-path-element basis into the users locale
DESKTOP=Työpöytä
DOWNLOAD=Lataukset
TEMPLATES=Mallit
PUBLICSHARE=Julkinen
DOCUMENTS=Asiakirjat
MUSIC=Musiikki
PICTURES=Kuvat
VIDEOS=Videot
# Another alternative is:
#MUSIC=Documents/Music
#PICTURES=Documents/Pictures
#VIDEOS=Documents/Videos
… after editing run make-default-folders script, which contenst is
#!/bin/bash
mv $HOME/.config/user-dirs.dirs $HOME/.config/user-dirs.dirs.backup
sleep 1
