Description

**Mapbox Navigation SDK version:** 0.35.0

For apps with German language voice navigation says "drive" even if route profile is set for walking (route path itself is ok). I'm not sure if it applies to other languages as well. English commands seem to be route-type agnostic

Research direction

Start by reproducing voice navigation for a walking route with German selected in Mapbox Navigation SDK 0.35.0, comparing its commands with an equivalent driving route and with English output. Done means German walking instructions use walking-appropriate wording while the route path remains unchanged, with regression coverage for the language and route profile combination.
