### Dataset Summary

This dataset contains two dataset pairs corresponding to the Europarl corpus. Both the English and the German version are aligned with the Catalan translation, which has been obtained using Apertium's RBMT system from the Spanish version of the Spanish-English alignment. Catalan-German alignment has been obtained using this [alignment finder](https://github.com/davidcanovas/alignment-finder-with-pivot-language) from de-en and ca-en.
- Catalan-English: 1 965 735 segments.
- Catalan-German: 1 734 644 segments.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

This dataset can be used to train NMT and SMT systems.
It has been used as a training corpus for the [Softcatalà machine translation engine](https://www.softcatala.org/traductor/).

### Languages

Catalan (`ca`).
German (`de`).
English (`en`).
