Turn Danish video or audio into English subtitles. The speech is transcribed, then translated into English, and exported as SRT, VTT or plain text with the original timings intact.

How Danish audio becomes English subtitles

Audio in Danish (Dansk) is transcribed first, then translated into English (English). Because the translation runs on the transcript rather than on the audio, the English subtitle file keeps the timings of the original Danish speech — each line appears at the moment it was actually said.

Both languages are written in the Latin alphabet, so the file needs nothing from your player beyond that script.

Why translate Danish video into English

Danish is spoken principally in Denmark; English in worldwide. A English subtitle track is what lets one recording reach both audiences without re-recording, re-editing or dubbing it.

Because subtitles are a separate file rather than part of the picture, you can attach several language tracks to the same video and let viewers pick.

About the Danish audio

Danish is the hardest of the Scandinavian languages to transcribe, because a great deal of what the spelling implies is not pronounced — consonants soften or disappear and vowels run together. Clear studio Danish is fine; casual conversational Danish is where accuracy drops fastest, and is worth reading through carefully.

About the English subtitles

English has a wider spread of accents than any other language here, and the gap between spelling and pronunciation means recognition leans on context rather than sound alone. Names and technical terms are where errors concentrate, because those are exactly the words context cannot predict.

What a Danish to English subtitle file looks like

Four lines of Danish speech, transcribed and translated, as they come out of the exported SRT. The timings are the Danish speaker's — translation does not move them, which is why the file drops onto the original video unchanged.

What to check before publishing

  • Names and places, which translation handles less reliably than ordinary prose.
  • Idiom — a phrase that is natural in Danish may need loosening to read well in English.
  • Timing on fast exchanges, where two speakers overlap.

Common questions

How do I add English subtitles to a Danish video?

Upload the video, set the spoken language to Danish and the subtitle language to English, then export the result as SRT and upload it alongside your video. Nothing is burned into the picture, so the subtitles stay switchable.

Does the English subtitle file stay in sync?

Yes. Translation happens on the transcript, so every English line inherits the timing of the Danish words it came from. The file will sync with the same video without adjustment.

Can I get the Danish transcript as well?

Yes. Transcribing Danish into Danish subtitles is a separate job on the same recording, and gives you the original-language track alongside the English one.

What does a Danish to English subtitle job cost?

One credit per minute of the recording, rounded up, whether you transcribe or translate. Plans start at $10 a month for 300 credits, refreshed at the start of each month.
