+This is a very small distilled version of the [bert-base-multilingual-cased](https://huggingface.co/bert-base-multilingual-cased) model for Russian and English.
+
+This model is useful if you want to fine-tune it for a relatively simple Russian task (e.g. NER or sentiment classification), and you care more about speed and size than about accuracy. It is approximately x10 faster than [DeepPavlov/rubert-base-cased-sentence](https://huggingface.co/DeepPavlov/rubert-base-cased-sentence).
+
+It was trained on the [Yandex translate corpus](https://translate.yandex.ru/corpus) using MLM loss (partially distilled from `bert-base-multilingual-cased`) and translation ranking loss.
