# PaLe-MADLAD Data

Data used for training the [PaLe-MADLAD model](https://huggingface.co/tartuNLP/pale-madlad-mt) to translate from Proper Karelian, Livvi, Ludian, and Veps to Russian and vice versa. Every dataset entry represents a single text and comes as a list of sentences supplemented (where possible) with a list of translations into Russian. Our sources include:
- [VepKar](http://dictorpus.krc.karelia.ru/en): various articles, Biblical texts, folklore, and more in Proper Karelian, Livvi, Ludian, and Veps, mostly translated into Russian
- [Omamedia](https://omamedia.ru/): news articles in Proper Karelian, Livvi, and Veps
- Wikipedia: multi-domain articles in Livvi and Veps
- [yle.fi](https://yle.fi/): news articles in Livvi
