GALE Phase 2 Arabic Newswire Parallel Text

<h3>Introduction</h3><br>
<p>GALE Phase 2 Arabic Newswire Parallel Text was developed by the Linguistic Data Consortium (LDC).

<h3>Data</h3><br>
<p>GALE Phase 2 Arabic Newswire Parallel Text includes 400 source-translation pairs, comprising 181,704 tokens of Arabic source text and its English translation. Data is drawn from six distinct Arabic newswire sources.: Al Ahram, Al Hayat, Al-Quds Al-Arabi, An Nahar, Asharq Al-Awsat and Assabah.</p><br>
<p>Data was manually selected for translation according to several criteria, including linguistic features and topic features. The files were formatted into a human-readable translation format and assigned to translation vendors. Translators followed LDC's Arabic&nbsp;to English translation guidelines. Bilingual LDC staff performed quality control procedures on the completed translations.</p><br>
<p>Source data and translations are distributed in TDF format. TDF files are tab-delimited files containing one segment of text along with meta information about that segment. Each field in the TDF file is described in TDF_format.text. All data are encoded in UTF-8.</p><br>
