- "Go to the folder that has your name"

- He'll call it the user's folder / the folder with the user's name on it

>We need a generic name for the folder so that it can be referred
>in a generic sense without knowing the username of the specific user account.

- N (where n = username)

>I vote for "User Home", or if you don't like white spaces call it
>"Userhome" (Username is also lacking the whitespace, isn't it?).

-This doesn't translate well at all: Hogar del Usuario / Nombre del usuario.

each session is a personalized experience. the person who logs in knows who he is and understands that a folder with his name on it is probably where all her or his things are. karmic solved this very well and i don't understand why it's still considered a papercut.
