	# SMOL

	SMOL (Set for Maximal Overall Leverage) is a collection professional
	translations into 115 Low-Resource Languages, for the purpose of training
	translation models, and otherwise increasing the representations of said
	languages in NLP and technology.

	Please read our [paper](...) for a much more thorough description!

	## Resources in this repository

	There are three resources in this directory:

	* SmolSent: A collection of sentence-level translations into 81 languages
	* SmolDoc: A collection of document-level translations into 100 languages
	* SmolDoc-factuality-annotations: A collection of sentence-level
	translations into 81 languages

	## Per-language information

	The following table only includes information for the
	`source_lang_translated_lang` direction. However, data in this repo is released
	in both directions, so e.g. this table lists only `en_ay`, but reversed `ay_en`
	data is also released.

	## Notes on language codes

	We use the backwards-compatible BCP-47 language code convention. Several of
	these languages have various alternate code also in use, including:

	* ak Twi also uses the code `tw`. Note that using the supercode for the
	most prevelent language variety is very common, e.g. `ku` for `kmr`, `zh`
	for `cmn`, etc.
	* ber The grouping of the Tamazight languages is a matter of debate. The
	variety in these data is probably close to `tzm`, though a language expert
	should opine
	* qu Another supercode issue. The Quechua variety this data is closest to
	is likely `quy`, though a language expert should opine
	* pa-Arab is also referred to as `lah`

	For convenience, here is a mapping from codes used by Flores and SMOL:

	## Known issues

	There are several known issues of this dataset:

	* The translations of `SmolDoc` to Ho (Warang Citi script) (`hoc`) contain
	some instances of transliterated English, rather than actual Ho text. This
	is currently being corrected.
	* The translations to Mooré (`mos`) contain a mix of orthographies.
	* The translations into Kituba (`ktu`), Tulu (`tcy`), Nepali (`ne`), and
	Tibetan (`bo`) caused notable regressions in `ChrF`, suggesting that they
	are low-quality, though this could also be an issue with training or
	evaluation.

	If you speak any of these languages and notice quality issues, please reach out.
	Another especially useful piece of information is whether the correct
	orthographies are used in these deliveries.
