Task: Explanation
Input (English): The Akita (秋田犬 , Akita-inu, Akita-ken ) is a large breed of dog originating from the mountainous northern regions of Japan. There are two separate varieties of Akita: a "Japanese" strain, commonly called "Akita Ken" in Japan, "Akita Inu" ("inu" means "dog" in Japanese), or "Japanese Akita"; and an "American" strain, known as the "Akita" or "American Akita". The Japanese strain called the Akita Inu comes in a narrow palette of colors, with all other colors considered atypical of the breed, while the American strain known simply as the Akita comes in all dog colors. The Akita has a short double-coat similar to that of many other northern spitz breeds such as the Siberian Husky, but long-coated dogs can be found in many litters due to a recessive gene. Question: Which dog has more varieties, the Swedish Lapphund or the Akita? Answer: Akita
Output (English):  There are two separate varieties of Akita: a Japanese strain, commonly called Akita Ken in Japan, Akita Inu inu means dog in Japanese, or Japanese Akita; and an American strain, known as the Akita or American Akita.
