# Sumerian and Akkadian Cuneiform Language Translator
This is a translation network that understands Sumerian and Akkadian languages written in cuneiform.
It was trained on cuneiform transcribed in the CDLI ATF format. For example:
```text
translate Akkadian to English: 1(disz){d}szul3-ma-nu-_sag man gal?_-u2 _man_ dan-nu _man kisz_
```
The network was trained to translate between the ancient languages:
* Akkadian
* Sumerian
and the modern languages:
* English
* French
* German
* Italian
* Spanish
The training data contains, primarily, English translations so those translations are best.
The network was trained on prompts such as:
* `translate Akkadian to English: `
* `translate German to Sumerian: `
* `translate Akkadian to Italian: `
## Limitations
It was *not* trained to translate between the ancient languages but it is capable of it
(`translate Sumerian to Akkadian: `). Buyer beware.
Its vocabulary does not include ā, ḫ, ī, ř, š, ṣ, or ū so those letters are replaced with the unadorned letter (or "sh" in the case of š and ṣ).
