It means you're running as root a machine named DESKTOP-9R2GIKO. And those "things"are system folders.

The output you are getting from ls is the content of / (root) in your file system hierarchy.
To make sure where you are you can run: pwd, it should return: /
To find out what each directory in ls output is contain and responsible of run:
man hier
For example it states that:
/ This is the root directory. This is where the whole tree starts.
To make sure about the meaning of root@DESKTOP-9R2GIKO you can run: echo $PS1, you should get an output containing/similar to:

Pay attention to u@h, u is username, @ is a literal and h is your host name.

By default, when you start a new shell (Terminal) in Ubuntu, the following will show up.
<name of user>@<name of host machine>
In your case, it's root@DESKTOP-9R2GIKO. So that means you are logged in as the root user to a machine named DESKTOP-9R2GIKO.
As for ls, it's a command which lists a directory's content.
If you are interested in learning more about the command line, I would strongly suggest taking some courses. You can find lots of free courses online. You can also find a brief description about in the tag's description here on Ask Ubuntu.
