Planning your event
Indonesia’s constitution names Indonesian, Bahasa Indonesia, as its national language. Its Cabinet Secretariat reported on 21 November 2023 that the language was designated an official language for proceedings of the UNESCO General Conference.
Timor-Leste’s constitution also allows Indonesian and English as civil-service working languages alongside its official languages for as long as deemed necessary. For a regional programme, record that conditional working-language role separately from each individual delegate’s chosen translation.
The attendee selects Bahasa Indonesia and reads “Bagaimana Anda ingin mengikuti?” on the Indonesian listener screen. Dengarkan starts translated audio and Baca selects text. Navigation is in Indonesian, so neither mode requires the guest to work through English joining controls.

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.
