# CONAN-EUS: Basque and Spanish Parallel Counter Narratives Dataset
CONAN-EUS was created by professionally translating all 6654 English HS-CN pairs of the original [CONAN](https://aclanthology.org/P19-1271.pdf) dataset into
**Basque and Spanish**. For experimentation we generated train, validation and test splits in a way that no HS-CN pairs occurred across them.

The CONAN (COunter NArratives through Nichesourcing) dataset was published by [Chung et al., 2019](https://aclanthology.org/P19-1271.pdf)
and is publicly available in [https://github.com/marcoguerini/CONAN](https://github.com/marcoguerini/CONAN).
## Data
This repository contains the Basque and Spanish CONAN-EUS data, in Machine Translated (MT) and post-edited forms. Furthermore, to facilitate experimentation we also share
the generated splits of the original CONAN English data ([https://github.com/marcoguerini/CONAN](https://github.com/marcoguerini/CONAN)).
+ data/eu: train/val/test sets with both the MT post-edited Basque data
+ data/es: train/val/test sets with both the MT post edited Spanish data
+ data/en: train/val/test sets of the original CONAN English data
## HS-CN example
The CONAN dataset includes HS-CN pairs, regarding the topic of Muslims and Islam.
An example of a HS-CN pair in Basque, Spanish and English is illustrated below:
| HS | CN |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Musulmanok ez dugu gure kultura aberastu dezakeen ezer erabilgarririk. | Zer egin dute guretzat musulmanek? Beno, kafea, erlojuak, kamerak, higienea, unibertsitateak, tresna kirurgikoak, mapak, musika, aljebra. |
| Los musulmanes no tienen nada útil que pueda enriquecer nuestra cultura.| ¿Qué han hecho los musulmanes por nosotros? Bueno, café, relojes, cámaras, higiene, universidades, instrumentos quirúrgicos, mapas, música, álgebra.|
| Muslims do not have anything useful that can enrich our culture.| What have Muslims ever done for us? Well, Coffee, Clocks, Cameras, Hygiene, Universities, Surgical Instruments, Maps, Music, Algebra.|
