As I still had a suspicion that those non-Eglish entries in the Firefox menu remain because of some cash issues, I have just launched another instance of the Firefox browser using a separate profile. Well, in a separate profile, the Firefox menu is in English while in the default profile it is in a non-English language. So, it could be a cash issue: I have unmerged the gettext while running Firefox and so its substitutions could be left somewhere in cash... P.S. As I have already described it earlier, this issue with the Firefox menu is only related to the menu I get while right-clicking on a youtube video in Firefox. (All the other menus is in English, as desired.)
