Planning your event
It has been an EU official language since 1973. The Nordic Council’s official-language list is “Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Norwegian and Swedish.” Denmark’s government describes Danish as the language of Denmark.
Novo Nordisk’s 2026 AGM page says its meeting is held in English with simultaneous interpretation into Danish. Shareholders may speak and submit questions in that language, so the audience translation and the language of contributions are separate requirements.
Dansk is the Danish language button. Once selected, the attendee can hear their chosen translation or read it, but the navigation stays in English. The invitation should name the button and make the language of those controls clear.
Baian can also translate speakers using this language. For an English and Danish programme, enable Multiple spoken languages before starting. A question in either language can follow a presentation while listeners keep their chosen translation.

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.
