What respondents see
The same question, in Odia
The screen on the right uses SurveySetu's real Odia interface text. The question is an example of the kind of translation respondents get; your own questions are machine-translated when someone picks Odia.

How it works
Running a survey for Odia speakers
Build in English
Use the builder or a template. Short, plain sentences translate best.
Offer Odia
In the survey's language settings, offer Odia — alone or with others — and star it as the default if most of your audience reads it.
Respondents answer in Odia
The survey opens with a language picker; respondents can switch language at the top of the screen at any time.
Results in one place
Choice answers from every language add up in the same charts, with a breakdown by language. Typed answers arrive exactly as written.
Odia on SurveySetu: the details
- Odia is written in the Odia script. SurveySetu shows it with the phone's built-in Odia font, so respondents don't download anything extra.
- Questions and answer options are machine-translated into Odia, checked to really be in Odia script, and cached, so everyone answering in Odia sees the same wording.
- Place names in targeting and location questions are localised too, using their district and state as context.
- Setu can read each question aloud on tap with the phone's own Odia voice. If a phone has no Odia voice installed, the text still shows; only the read-aloud is unavailable.
Questions about surveys in Odia
Do I have to write my survey in Odia?
No. You build the survey in English and SurveySetu translates it into Odia automatically when a respondent picks Odia. You don't need a translator or a second version of the survey.
Can respondents type their answers in Odia?
Yes. Open-text answers come back exactly as the respondent typed them, in Odia (ଓଡ଼ିଆ) or any other language, and choice answers from every language are counted together in the same chart.
Can I make Odia the default language?
Yes. In the survey's language settings, offer Odia (with or without the others) and star it as the default, so the survey opens in Odia for everyone. Respondents can still switch language at the top of the screen.
Is the machine translation always perfect?
No machine translation is. Keep questions short and plain, avoid idioms and abbreviations, and open your survey link in the language yourself (or ask a native speaker) before you share it widely. If a translation service is briefly unavailable, a line can show in English until it is translated.
