The length of an audio book is specified in hours and minutes. But it's not possible to translate 'hr' for hours. Nor is it possible to translate 'min' for minutes but that's a minor problem since the it's the same in Swedish.

Perhaps I should clarify the last picture. The text "items" is not possible to translate.
