crates/ui-egui/src/i18n/*.tsv and catalog.rs are gone: translations live
in storytold/craft-i18n (locales/<l>/wordcraft.tsv, synced at
wordcraft@806a945) and are credited in its ATTRIBUTION.md. To carry an
open PR's catalog rows over, from a craft-i18n checkout:

# Swedish interface
|
||
|
||
> **Last reviewed:** 2026-10-13 · **Last updated:** 2026-10-23 · **Change:** trivial (the catalog moved to storytold/craft-i18n, `locales/sv/wordcraft.tsv`; previously trivial: interface-language tests: a missing translation never fails a test, `cargo xtask i18n-report` in `cargo xtask ci` prints the strings each language lacks, and lookup and template tests use inline fixture catalogs or the pseudo-language; previously trivial: the interface audit lists missing Swedish entries instead of failing; previously minor: Swedish interface catalog and regression checks) · **Target:** WordCraft 0.6.1
|
||
|
||
Choose **File › Options › Interface language › Svenska**, or follow a Swedish system display
|
||
language (`sv-SE`, `sv_SE.UTF-8`, and `sv-FI` for Swedish in Finland). The catalog code is `sv`;
|
||
`ui.language` with `{"value":"sv"}` selects it explicitly, and `WORDCRAFT_LANGUAGE=sv-SE` does the
|
||
same for a headless screenshot or a launch while the preference is `auto`. The choice is saved with
|
||
the other interface settings. Document text, command ids, CLI/MCP/control responses and file paths
|
||
do not change.
|
||
|
||
craft-i18n's `locales/sv/wordcraft.tsv` (storytold/craft-i18n; it was `crates/ui-egui/src/i18n/sv.tsv`) has 2,504 entries: every key of the Spanish reference catalog and
|
||
of the Bulgarian one (built-in style names, equation gallery labels, paper sizes, watermarks and
|
||
citation styles included), plus 44 newer strings no other catalog has yet: 23 that the interface
|
||
audit finds and 21 that the code sends through translation outside the audit's reach (native print
|
||
settings, Go To, command search). It is written from the meaning of the English labels; no other
|
||
product's Swedish interface, string table or terminology database was consulted, and no other
|
||
catalog was used as a source. The catalog format has no plural forms, and Swedish counts don't need
|
||
them: `ord` (word) is the same in the singular and the plural (`1 ord`, `21 ord`). Placeholders,
|
||
`\n` breaks in ribbon labels and dialog ellipses are kept, and strings added later fall back to
|
||
English until they are translated.
|
||
|
||
The draft was made with Claude Code. A native speaker approved the terminology and every open
|
||
wording choice, and reviewed the running app.
|
||
|
||
## Conventions
|
||
|
||
- Commands are imperatives (`Spara`, `Infoga tabell`); messages address the user as `du`. When two
|
||
words are equally right, the softer everyday one wins (`Använd`, not `Verkställ`).
|
||
- Ribbon tabs keep the English word class: `Infoga`, `Rita`, `Granska` and `Visa` are verbs because
|
||
the same keys are also buttons and groups. Other tabs and groups are nouns.
|
||
- Only the first word of a label is capitalised (`Acceptera alla ändringar`).
|
||
- `Markera` means select and `Välj` means choose from a list. Mark, markup and highlight use other
|
||
words (`Märk post`, `märkning`, `Framhäv`, `Överstrykning`), so the two never mix.
|
||
- Ribbon buttons with a `\n` break are separate keys from the command names and may be shorter
|
||
where the group gives the context: the button `Framhäv\nfält`, the command `Framhäv kopplingsfält`.
|
||
- Decimal comma in fixed labels (`Radavstånd 1,5`, `8,5" × 11"`), Swedish quotation marks (”…”),
|
||
and a spaced en dash where English has an em dash (`Redigering – redigera dokumentet direkt`).
|
||
- Names stay as they are: WordCraft, Zotero, SmartArt, WordArt, the Craft theme, paper sizes
|
||
(Letter, Legal …) and citation styles (APA, MLA …). Loanwords Swedish speakers use stay too:
|
||
`community`, `commit`.

||
## Known compromises
|
||
|
||
The catalog has one translation per English key, so a key used in two senses gets the wording that
|
||
fits its most visible place:
|
||
|
||
- `Outline` is both the View tab's Outline view and the Font menu's text outline effect:
|
||
`Disposition`, which is wrong for the text effect.
|
||
- `Display` is both an Options page and the Equation tab's display-equation button: `Visning`; the
|
||
button's tooltip explains it.
|
||
- `Open` is File › Open and a paragraph-spacing preset: `Öppna`.
|
||
|
||
Giving these call sites a translation context (`tc`) would fix them. Some AutoCorrect options
|
||
describe English typing (`Capitalize names of days`, `Ordinals (1st) as superscript`, smart
|
||
quotes); they are translated as written and still act on English text.
|
||
|
||
## Verification and remaining scope
|
||
|
||
`cargo test -p wordcraft-ui-egui --lib i18n::tests` covers Swedish locale tags (`sv`, `sv-SE`,
|
||
`sv_SE.UTF-8`, `SV-se`, `sv-FI`) and preference order, saving and restoring `sv`, unchanged document
|
||
content and the glyphs `ÅÄÖåäöÉé` plus every other accented letter the catalog uses in the bundled
|
||
Inter (Regular, Medium, SemiBold) and JetBrains Mono. The shared checks (catalog validation and the missing-translation report, `cargo xtask i18n-report`)
|
||
include Swedish automatically.
|
||
|
||
Spelling, grammar and hyphenation stay English-only: this is an interface translation, not
|
||
Swedish proofing.

## Revision history
|
||
|
||
| Date | Change | Summary |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| 2026-10-23 | trivial | The catalog moved to storytold/craft-i18n (`locales/sv/wordcraft.tsv`) |
|
||
| 2026-10-23 | trivial | Lookup, context, template, style-name and command-search tests use inline fixture catalogs or the pseudo-language; tests that asserted one language's catalog wording removed |
|
||
| 2026-10-23 | trivial | Interface-language tests: a missing translation falls back to English and never fails a test; `cargo xtask i18n-report` (part of `cargo xtask ci`) prints the strings each language lacks; single-language coverage tests removed |
|
||
| 2026-10-23 | trivial | The interface audit lists Swedish strings the catalog lacks; a missing entry doesn't fail the audit |
|
||
| 2026-10-13 | minor | Swedish catalog (2,504 entries), conventions, terminology, known compromises and regression checks |
