Træneren siger, at banen er våd, men at bolden stadig er god nok.

It is the singular definite ending for a common-gender noun.

So:

• træner = coach

• træneren = the coach

• bane = field / pitch / court

• banen = the field / pitch / court

• bold = ball
• bolden = the ball

In Danish, the definite article is often attached to the end of the noun instead of being a separate word like English the.

Siger is the present tense form of the verb at sige = to say.

• at sige = to say
• siger = says / is saying

So Træneren siger means The coach says.

This is very common in Danish: many present-tense verbs end in -r.

Here at means that and introduces a subordinate clause.

The coach says two things:

1. at banen er våd = that the field is wet
2. at bolden stadig er god nok = that the ball is still good enough

The word men joins those two clauses: but.

Repeating at is normal and clear in Danish when two parallel that-clauses are being contrasted or coordinated.

Sometimes in casual speech, Danish speakers may drop at, especially after verbs like sige, tro, or synes. But for learners, it is safest and most natural to keep it.

So this is a good standard version:

• Træneren siger, at banen er våd ...

Leaving it in makes the structure clearer.

Because this is a subordinate clause introduced by at.

In a main clause, Danish usually has verb-second word order, so you often get:

• Bolden er stadig god nok.

But after at, word order changes, and adverbs like stadig usually come before the finite verb:

• at bolden stadig er god nok

So this sentence shows a very important pattern:

• main clause: subject + verb + adverb
• subordinate clause: subject + adverb + verb

They are predicate adjectives after er, and they agree with the noun in gender and number.

Both banen and bolden are singular common-gender nouns, so the adjective stays in its basic form:

• banen er våd
• bolden er god nok

Compare:

• common gender singular: våd, god
• neuter singular: vådt, godt
• plural: våde, gode

So if the subject were plural, you would say:

• Banerne er våde.
• Boldene er gode nok.

Here god nok means good enough or still acceptable.

It does not mean morally good. In this context, it means the ball is still usable or suitable despite the wet conditions.

So:

• god = good
• nok = enough

Together:

• god nok = good enough

Stadig means still in the sense of continuing to be true.

So bolden stadig er god nok means the ball remains good enough.

English still can often be translated by either stadig or endnu, but they are not always interchangeable.

A simple learner rule is:

• stadig = still, continuing
• endnu = yet / still, often with a sense of up to now

In this sentence, stadig is the most natural choice.

The sentence is using standard Danish comma placement with a comma before the subordinate clause:

• Træneren siger, at banen er våd ...

The comma before men is also normal, since men connects two clauses.

You may also see Danish written without the comma before at, depending on comma style, but the version in your sentence is perfectly standard and very common.

Because Danish usually puts the definite article onto the noun itself.

So instead of:

• the coach
• the field
• the ball

Danish uses:

• træneren
• banen
• bolden

This is one of the biggest structural differences from English, and this sentence is a good example of it.
