We are glad to hear that :)

The file you are looking for is sv.po and is stored in /po directory. You can 
get actual version of the file for 0.45 release from [1]. It is regular text 
file with translation definitions but we recommend to use some translation 
relates tools to translate them, like poedit, gtranslator etc.

All you would probably like to know about translating Inkscape is described on 
wiki page [2]. You can find there information about what, how and where can be 
translated. After the translation, the file should be submited to our patch 
tracker at sourceforge so we can test it and commit to the release tree.

If there is anything else you would like to ask and we could answer, feel free 
to. If you would like to have a quick answer, join us at IRC or jabber 
conference rooms. There is usually at least one person familiar with 
translations that can help you :)

Sincerely
