### Dataset Summary

To establish a comprehensive and challenging evaluation benchmark for Machine Translation in Turkic languages, we translate a test set originally introduced in WMT 2020 News Translation Task for English-Russian. The original dataset is profesionally translated and consists of sentences from news articles that are both English and Russian-centric. We adopt this evaluation set (X-WMT) and begin efforts to translate it into several Turkic languages. The current version of X-WMT includes covers 8 Turkic languages and 88 language directions with a minimum of 300 sentences per language direction.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

[More Information Needed]

### Languages

Currently covered languages are (besides English and Russian):
- Azerbaijani (az)
- Bashkir (ba)
- Karakalpak (kaa)
- Kazakh (kk)
- Kirghiz (ky)
- Turkish (tr)
- Sakha (sah)
- Uzbek (uz)

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

A random example from the Russian-Uzbek set:
```
{"translation": {'ru': 'Моника Мутсвангва , министр информации Зимбабве , утверждает , что полиция вмешалась в отъезд Магомбейи из соображений безопасности и вследствие состояния его здоровья .', 'uz': 'Zimbabvening Axborot vaziri , Monika Mutsvanva Magombeyining xavfsizligi va sog'ligi tufayli bo'lgan jo'nab ketishinida politsiya aralashuvini ushlab turadi .'}}
```
### Data Fields

Each example has one field "translation" that contains two subfields: one per language, e.g. for the Russian-Uzbek set:
- **translation**: a dictionary with two subfields:
  - **ru**: the russian text
  - **uz**: the uzbek text
