The original raw PDFS were obtatined from the [Vuk'uzenzele website](https://www.vukuzenzele.gov.za/). The datasets contain government magazine editions in 11 languages, namely: | Language | Code | Language | Code | |------------|-------|------------|-------| | English | (eng) | Sepedi | (sep) | | Afrikaans | (afr) | Setswana | (tsn) | | isiNdebele | (nbl) | Siswati | (ssw) | | isiXhosa | (xho) | Tshivenda | (ven) | | isiZulu | (zul) | Xitstonga | (tso) | | Sesotho | (nso) | ## Available pairings The alignment direction is bidrectional, i.e. xho-zul is zul-xho afr-eng; afr-nbl; afr-nso; afr-sot; afr-ssw; afr-tsn; afr-tso; afr-ven; afr-xho; afr-zul eng-nbl; eng-nso; eng-sot ;eng-ssw; eng-tsn; eng-tso; eng-ven; eng-xho; eng-zul nbl-nso; nbl-sot; nbl-ssw; nbl-tsn; nbl-tso; nbl-ven; nbl-xho; nbl-zul nso-sot; nso-ssw; nso-tsn; nso-tso; nso-ven; nso-xho; nso-zul sot-ssw; sot-tsn; sot-tso; sot-ven; sot-xho; sot-zul ssw-tsn; ssw-tso; ssw-ven; ssw-xho; ssw-zul tsn-tso; tsn-ven; tsn-xho; tsn-zul tso-ven; tso-xho; tso-zul ven-xho; ven-zul xho-zul # Disclaimer This dataset contains machine-readable data extracted from PDF documents, from https://www.vukuzenzele.gov.za/, provided by the Government Communication Information System (GCIS).

There are 55 distinct datasets of paired sentences. The data is obtained by comparing [LASER](https://github.com/facebookresearch/LASER) embeddings of sentence tokens between 2 languages. If the similarity is high, the sentences are deemed semantic equivalents of one another and the observation is outputted. Naming convention: The naming structure of the pairwise_sentence_aligned folder is `aligned-{src_lang_code}-{tgt_lang_code}.csv`. For example, `aligned-afr-zul.csv` is the aligned sentences between Afrikaans and isiZulu. The data is in .csv format and the columns are `src_text`,`tgt_text`,`cosine_score` where: - `src_text` is the source sentence - `tgt_text` is the target sentence - `cosine_score` is the cosine similarity score obtained by comparing the sentence embeddings, it ranges from 0 to 1 **Note:** The notion of source (src) and target (tgt) are only necessary for distinction between the languages used in the aligned pair, as the sentence semantics should be bidirectional.
