It seems that no translations are included in the .desktop files.
Looking at e.g. /usr/share/applications/libreoffice-writer.desktop

[...]

Title:
  Libreoffice Quicklist menu entries need internationalization

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Libreoffice launcher icons have got a "New document", "New
  spreadsheet", etc. entry added to their Unity quicklists.

  This particular entry is not internationalized and appears always in
  English (see attached screenshot).

  I can think of two ways of solving this:

  1. Marking the strings for translation and providing a .pot file as
  part of the libreoffice package build, that can be imported into
  Launchpad for translators to do their work. Translations can then  be
  shipped in the regular language packs.

  2. Do a call for translations each cycle, similar to what we do
  already for the Firefox and Thunderbird desktop files, and manually
  put the received translations in the libreoffice desktop files.

  I'd suggest 1., as it's the most automated way and allows us to update
  translations independently from the libreoffice package.
