Entries that are voiced have a string here which contains the text to be fed to the text-to-speech system which produces the voice clips to be spoken for that language. So, in most cases it just contains the screen text, but adjustments are made for things like units (mAh -> milli Amp hours), abbreviations, or perhaps even quirks in the TTS system used (e.g. speaking resume like resumé).
