Planning your event
The European Union lists Bulgarian as an official language since 2007. Bulgaria’s constitution names it as the Republic’s official language and, under Article 36, makes studying and using Bulgarian a right and obligation of every Bulgarian citizen.
Bulgaria’s government also describes Cyrillic as the EU’s third official alphabet. The institutional language requirement and the written translation are both worth checking when you are preparing material for delegates from Bulgaria.
A guest taps Български and sees “Как искате да участвате?” in the Bulgarian listener interface. Слушайте is the listening option and Четете is the reading option. Audio follows the translation through the attendee’s headphones, while the text remains available for reading.

How long after a sentence ends its finished translation appears.
Baian, on its production Live service.
Measured on Baian’s production Live service from 13 to 15 October 2026, from the end of each spoken sentence to the finished English line in our captured listener feed. Earlier words in a long sentence wait longer than this. Spoken audio arrives a little after the text and was not measured.
Estimated medians: the speaker’s words appear in their own language about 1.0 seconds after they are spoken, and the first translation covering a word about 2.4 seconds after it.
Estimated from our captured listener feed for the same 53 recordings. The capture is incomplete, so some early previews are missing, and previews can still change before the sentence is finished. Times are measured to the feed, not to a phone screen.
Median 2.69 seconds behind the speaker, across 180 speeches.
