Feature Request: Dedicated keyboard shortcuts for specific languages (bypass auto-detect)Β #121

Problem:
I am using Amical for transcription and often experience issues with the "Autodetect Language" feature, especially when switching back and forth between two languages.

Potential solution
It would be incredibly helpful to have the option to assign specific keyboard shortcuts to specific languages, bypassing the auto-detect feature entirely. As a quick fix / workaround.

For example:

Shortcut 1 -> Always transcribe in Language 1 (e.g., German)

Shortcut 2 -> Always transcribe in Language 2 (e.g., English)

Currently, I have to rely on the auto-detect function, but forcing the language via dedicated hotkeys would make the workflow much faster and more accurate for bilingual users.
