Afgangstidspunktet står på boardingkortet.

In Danish, the definite article is usually attached to the end of the noun instead of standing in front of it.

• et afgangstidspunkt = a departure time
• afgangstidspunktet = the departure time

And:

• et boardingkort = a boarding pass
• boardingkortet = the boarding pass

So the ending -et is doing the job that the does in English.

It is a compound noun made from:

• afgang = departure
• tidspunkt = point in time / time
• -et = the definite ending for a neuter noun

So:

• afgangstidspunkt = departure time
• afgangstidspunktet = the departure time

Danish uses compound nouns very freely, much like German. English often writes these as separate words, but Danish commonly joins them into one word.

This is a very common question, because it sounds strange if you translate word for word.

• står literally means stands
• but in Danish, stå is often used when something is written, printed, or shown somewhere

So:

• Afgangstidspunktet står på boardingkortet
  means something like The departure time is written on the boarding pass

If you used er, it would sound more like simple location or identity, not specifically that the information appears in writing.

This use of stå is very common:

• Det står i avisen = It says so in the newspaper
• Hvad står der på skiltet? = What does the sign say?
• Det står på din billet = It’s written on your ticket

På usually means on, and here it is used the same way as in English:

• på boardingkortet = on the boarding pass

This makes sense because the information is printed on the document.

Danish often uses på with surfaces, documents, signs, screens, and similar things:

• på billetten = on the ticket
• på skærmen = on the screen
• på kortet = on the card / map

The word order is very straightforward:

• Afgangstidspunktet = subject
• står = verb
• på boardingkortet = prepositional phrase

So the pattern is:

Subject + verb + place/location

That is the normal order for a simple main clause in Danish.

It is a modern Danish word, but it is clearly borrowed from English.

• boarding comes from English
• kort is Danish and means card

So boardingkort is a Danish compound built partly from borrowed English material. This is very normal in modern Danish, especially for travel, technology, and international contexts.

You may also hear other travel-related borrowed words in Danish.

Yes, often you can, depending on context.

• afgangstiden = the departure time
• afgangstidspunktet = the departure time / the departure moment / the scheduled time of departure

Tidspunkt is slightly more precise and formal, because it literally means point in time.
Tid is more common in everyday speech.

So both can work, but afgangstidspunktet sounds a bit more exact or official.

Both afgangstidspunkt and boardingkort are neuter nouns in Danish.

Neuter nouns usually take:

• et in the indefinite singular
• -et in the definite singular

So:

• et afgangstidspunkt → afgangstidspunktet
• et boardingkort → boardingkortet

If they were common-gender nouns, they would usually take:

• en in the indefinite singular
• -en in the definite singular

For example:

• en billet → billetten

A very literal translation would be:

The departure-time stands on the boarding-pass

That sounds unnatural in English, but it helps explain the Danish structure.

A more natural English translation is:

The departure time is on the boarding pass
or even more precisely:
The departure time is written on the boarding pass

So this is a good example of where Danish and English use different verbs even when the overall meaning is the same.

The difficult part is that it is a long compound, so learners often need to break it up:

afgang + tidspunkt + et

A rough English-friendly guide might be:

AF-gangs-tee-spoongk-ted

But that is only approximate. A few important points:

• afgang has stress near the beginning
• tidspunkt is pronounced more compactly than it looks
• the final -et is usually a light ending, not strongly pronounced

A good learning strategy is to practice it in parts first:

• afgang
• tidspunkt
• afgangstidspunkt
• afgangstidspunktet

Yes. It is a very useful pattern:

[information] står på [document/object]

For example:

• Gate-nummeret står på boardingkortet = The gate number is on the boarding pass
• Sædenummeret står på billetten = The seat number is on the ticket
• Adressen står på brevet = The address is on the letter

This pattern is extremely common when talking about information that is written somewhere.
