  1. Project > Add New Item > Resourece File
  2. Add string in resource...
  3. Open your FormDesigner.cs, find and replace Text to this.stripItem.Text = global::your_app_namespace.resource_name.resource_value;

You can use Resourcemanager to set the string of the MenuItem.

So you can have something like:

MenuItem topLevel = mainMenu.MenuItems.Add("&XXX");
MenuItem first = new MenuItem();
first.Text = [Text from ResourceManager]
topLevel.MenuItems.Add(new MenuItem("&New"));
