I’ve googled it and still don’t really get what a directory is, a folder, an archive, a partition?

> In computing, a directory is a file system cataloging structure which contains references to other computer files, and possibly other directories. On many computers, directories are known as folders, or drawers,[1] analogous to a workbench or the traditional office filing cabinet.

Wikipedia has it better covered than I could phrase it.
