Local language for folders in URLs?

[rtora]

Hi, We're working on a e-commerce project that will be launched in several countries.

My question is this: Are there any advantages to name the URL-folders in the local language?

Ie.

International site:

www.domain.com/product/adidas-model-x

www.domain.com/category/adidas

Norwegian site:

www.domain.no/produkt/adidas-model-x

www.domain.no/kategori/adidas

As i like things tidy, I guess that would also mean we would have to rename the cart URLs and so on.

ie.

International site:

www.domain.com/checkout

Norwegian site:

www.domain.no/kasse
