Expert Danish Transcription Services 

The Danish language, known as Danish Dansk, is part of the East Scandinavian group of the Germanic branch of the Indo-European language family. 

It is the official language of Denmark, where it is spoken by more than five million people and you can also find it taught in the schools of the Faroe Islands, Iceland, and Greenland. There is also a small community of speakers in Germany.

If you require transcription of Dansk audio into any of these languages, or indeed, any of the 200+ other languages we specialise in, you can trust Absolute Translations to provide fast and accurate Danish audio transcriptions at a competitive cost.

While Danish is not a hugely spoken language, with around 6 million global speakers, it is not actually a dying language as some may think. 

As the language is still the primary language spoken in Danish schools, homes and state it is highly unlikely it will die out.

However, the language is constantly changing as Danes often adopt words from other counties. 

Plus, as the majority of residences in Denmark speak English to a high degree of competency, often British and American media is shown without subtitles.

Denmark is a free-market capitalist economy that is rated among the world's best locations for doing business. 

While most Danes do speak English, when communicating with Danish employees or investors it is important that any information is easily understood and not misinterpreted.

Whether you are producing staff training videos or product information soundbites, we would always recommend you have these transcribed into the local language. 

At Absolute Translations, our transcription services are priced per minute of audio with no hidden fees and are priced competitively.

While there are programmes out there that promise to transcribe Danish video and audio at a low cost, we have found that because Danish is such a complex language, with a large degree of borrowing from other languages, the technology struggles to accurately transcribe what the speakers really said, or entirely misses the context of words leading to mistakes in the transcriptions. 

Danish also has pronunciation differences that set it apart from its neighbouring countries languages.

This is means a second language speaker or computer programme may not be able to correctly transcribe your audio, particularly if the quality is not the best.

At Absolute Translations, we only use expert native-speaking Danish linguists with a minimum of 5 years experience.

You can rest easy knowing your Dansk audio transcriptions have been correctly transcribed capturing exactly what the original speaker intended to say.
