# Dataset Card for myXNLI

## Dataset Description

- **Repository:** https://github.com/akhtet/myXNLI
- **Point of Contact:** Aung Kyaw Htet

### Dataset Summary

The myXNLI corpus extends XNLI corpus with Myanmar (Burmese) language.

For myXNLI, we human-translated all 7,500 sentence pairs from XNLI English dev and test sets into Myanmar. The NLI and Genre labels from English dev and test sets are also reused for the Myanmar datasets.

The dataset also includes the NLI training data in Myanmar which is created by machine-translating the MultiNLI training data from English into Myanmar. Similar to XNLI, we also reuse the existing NLI and Genre labels for English training data for the Myanmar version.

A parallel corpus of 16 languages (including Myanmar) is additionally available from the Github repository.
