English to Danish video translator

Yes. Danish ran about the same length as English in our test, so the subtitles rarely crowd. They are laid out in Danish: up to 2 lines of 42 characters, 1 to 7 seconds on screen, long enough to read at 17 characters a second.

The Danish is cut into subtitles after translation, along its own sentences and the speaker’s pauses, so the Danish set may have a subtitle or two more or fewer than the English one.

As Danish writes them, and kept together. “Mødet finder sted den 16. oktober 2026 kl. 15:30.” came out as one subtitle, broken as “Mødet finder sted den” over “16. oktober 2026 kl. 15:30.”, with the date and time on one line.

The full stop after “16.” and the one in “kl.” aren’t read as sentence ends, so neither cuts the subtitle short. One more test sentence wrote the time with a full stop, “kl. 8.46”; choose colon or full stop and keep to it.

Yes. Danish addresses nearly everyone as du, and the subtitles do too: “Kan du sende mig rapporten inden fredag?” Speaking to a crowd, they switch to jer, as in “Tak til jer alle for at komme i dag.” There is seldom a formal register to fix.

Very good: in our test, translation from English into Danish scored clearly above the dedicated translation system we compared it with. Watch the video once with the Danish subtitles on, looking at names and figures, before you publish.

NoteOwl understands Danish and English on your Mac. It imports your MP4 videos, transcribes them with unlimited transcription and saves SRT files with each speaker named. If you already have English subtitles, the subtitle translator turns them Danish and keeps the timing.
