MADAR Parallel Corpus Dataset

The MADAR corpus is a collection of parallel sentences covering the dialects of 25 cities from the Arab World, in addition to English, French, and MSA. The corpus is created by translating selected sentences from the Basic Traveling Expression Corpus (BTEC) (Takezawa et al., 2007) to the different dialects. The exact details on the translation process and source and target languages are described in Bouamor et al. (2018).
