Yes it's possible to do multilingual sites in Umbraco but there are different approaches on how to do it.
A common approach is to have a site tree for each language you have to deal with or you can have 1 site where specific fields are translated using the vorto package for instance.
There is also a dictionary where you can create dictionary items, for things like label, button texts, placeholder and much more stuff that needs to be translated. This requires as culture setup on the hostname for the site root in order to work. But that is a part of the flow of setting up a multilingual site anyway so it's part of the flow.
But before going in to further details can you then tell a bit more about the site you're building? Should each language be accessible from seperate domains or will they be accessible from the same domain but using a structure like http://www.site.com/en and http://www.site.com/dk for instance?
If you're completely new to Umbraco it might be a good idea to get hold of the basics before diving into the subject of dealing with a multilingual site.
So in short - Yes it's indeed possible to do multilingual sites in Umbraco :)
I suggest you have a look at some of these resources

Does this programme offer multilingual support? I'm trying to set up a sight in four different languages.

https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Using-Umbraco/Creating-Basic-Site/ http://24days.in/umbraco/2014/how-to-set-up-an-umbraco-site/ http://umbraco.tv - This costs about 19€ a month but it features many good videos about how to work with Umbraco
Hope this helps.
