Spelling out words
This program converts a word to its "spelling constituents", i.e. how the letters are spelled out as separate letters. Below is the conversion table for the (Swedish) letters. The program was introduced in the Swedish blog post Spelling out words: En liten lek med ljudande ord.
Notes:
The vowels are ignored in the conversion. The Swedish vowels are: aeiouyåäö.
For now only the Swedish language is supported.
