As GreatLord said, you will need programming knowledge to do this.
If you want to start making progress with this, you could start by getting a sound understanding of C and basic Windows programming, including resource file syntax. Then work from there.
You will generally find though that most stuff that should be in a resource file, already is.
What have you found to make you think otherwise?

Sure, but the problem is, I don't really know which strings this are, and how I can find them.

Somewhere in reactos/lib/cabinet I found sourcecode calling functions like err, and the strings it gave to these functions looked like something output to the user e.g. errormessages like file * couldn't be found or something like this, so I wondered, if this should be translatable. As I don't know what kind of stings should be translatable, I just asked.
Well, you say I should learn some things like structures of resource files, do you have any links for me?
