Changes svenska.lang to swedish voice strings. Rockbox now speaks Swedish!

Somehow the attachment disappeared.

What voice engine did you use to test this? There are some “odd” spellings and extra hyphens added in there, and I guess they were made to make it sound better, but some tweaks (that are more voice engine-specific) can be better to have in the script that creates the voice file.

I would guess eSpeak-sv, since it is all that is out there (to my knowledge).

I would assume there are also Swedish SAPI voices available.

Point taken. I’ve changed the strange spellings. There are also a few other errors corrected with this patch.
I use espeak with a swedish voice (’espeak -v swedish’), and while there are some peculiar pronounciations I have no problems navigating blind.

After a quick look I think it looks good, but there are some voice strings that are not capitalized, don’t know if that matters though.

Minor corrections in svenska.lang. I capitalised a couple of strings. I tried to follow english.lang in regards to capitalisation. That means most of the “only spoken” strings are uncapitalised.

I made some pronounciation corrections in voice.pl. There is one problem, though. I am not sure how to handle ‘byte’ vs ‘byte’. As in data quantity vs (track) change.

Since “byte” is never voiced without a prefix, only correct kilo- mega- and gigabyte to -bajt.
