Swedish is a very entertainingly sort of phonetic once you get the hang of it, although not as rigidly as Gaelic. There's just the problem of one particular sound ('sj') having 65 different ways to spell it (Personally, I think about 15 of those are reaching or highly local but the rest are totally legit). And it's the one many foreigners can't pronounce, which is kind of difficult since it's needed to even count to ten.

Here's a video with the most common spelling variants: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZXZYEVEkug
