+
+MIRACL 🌍🙌🌏 (Multilingual Information Retrieval Across a Continuum of Languages) is a multilingual retrieval dataset that focuses on search across 18 different languages, which collectively encompass over three billion native speakers around the world.
+
+This dataset contains the collection data of the 16 "known languages". The remaining 2 "surprise languages" will not be released until later.
+
+The topics are generated by native speakers of each language, who also label the relevance between the topics and a given document list.
+
+This repository only contains the topics and qrels of MIRACL. The collection can be found [here](https://huggingface.co/datasets/miracl/miracl-corpus).
