+# Anki-Global Voices English-French Translation Dataset
+
+## Description
+
+The Anki-Global Voices English-French Translation Dataset is a comprehensive collection of over 500,000 translation pairs, merging the Anki English to French dataset with the Global Voices English to French dataset. This unique dataset provides a wide range of sentences, suitable for training and evaluating machine translation models in both informal and formal language contexts.
+
+### Languages
+
+This dataset includes sentence pairs in English (ISO 639-1: EN) and French (ISO 639-1: FR).
+
+## Dataset Structure
+
+### Data Instances
+
+Each data instance consists of an English sentence and its French translation. Example:
+
+```json
+{
+"source": "He is a good boy.",
+"target": "C'est un bon garçon."
+}
+```
+
+### Data Fields
+
+- `source`: The English sentence.
+- `target`: The corresponding French translation.
+
+### Data Splits
+
+The dataset is divided into training, validation, and test sets. The distribution is as follows (illustrative numbers):
+
+- Train: 439,000 pairs
+- Validation: 54,900 pairs
+- Test: 54,900 pairs
+
+## Dataset Creation
+
+### Curation Rationale
+
+This dataset aims to aid the development of machine translation models by providing a rich source of linguistic variations and expressions in English and French, covering both everyday language and formal contexts.
+
+### Source Data
+
+#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization
+
+The dataset combines two sources:
+
+1. **Anki English to French Dataset**: Comprised of curated translation pairs submitted to the Tatoeba Project, mostly short and with casual language.
+2. **Global Voices English to French Dataset**: Derived from news and cultural articles on the Global Voices websites, featuring more formal, complicated language.
+
+Approximately 21,000 pairs were removed from the Global Voices dataset before merging with the Anki Dataset due to severe misalignment. Samples have already been shuffled.
+
+### Annotations
+
+The dataset contains translations but no additional annotations.
+
+#### Annotation Process
+
+Translations in the Anki dataset were community-contributed, and those in the Global Voices dataset were done by professional translators and journalists.
+
+### Personal and Sensitive Information
+
+The dataset does not contain personal or sensitive information.
+
+## Considerations for Using the Data
+
+### Social Impact of Dataset
+
+This dataset can help improve the accuracy of machine translation systems, facilitating communication across different language speakers.
+
+### Discussion of Biases
+
+The dataset covers both informal and formal language contexts, providing a balanced linguistic range. However, source datasets' biases might be present.
+
+### Other Known Limitations
+
+The dataset focuses exclusively on English-French translations, which may not generalize to other language pairs or cultural contexts.
+
+## Additional Information
+
+### Dataset Curators
+
+Curated by Ariel Guerra-Adames, this dataset combines the Anki and Global Voices datasets into a comprehensive resource for machine translation.
