Dataset Summary
The MultiUN parallel corpus is extracted from the United Nations Website , and then cleaned and converted to XML at Language Technology Lab in DFKI GmbH (LT-DFKI), Germany. The documents were published by UN from 2000 to 2009.
This is a collection of translated documents from the United Nations originally compiled by Andreas Eisele and Yu Chen (see http://www.euromatrixplus.net/multi-un/).
This corpus is available in all 6 official languages of the UN consisting of around 300 million words per language
Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
The underlying task is machine translation.
Languages
Parallel texts are present in all six official languages: Arabic (ar), Chinese (zh), English (en), French (fr),
Russian (ru) and Spanish (es), with a small part of the documents available also in German (de).

The focus in OPUS is to provide freely available data sets in various formats together with basic annotation to be useful for applications in computational linguistics, translation studies and cross-linguistic corpus studies. In this paper, we report about new data sets and their features, additional annotation tools and models provided from the website and essential interfaces and on-line services included in the project.",
