Overall, 36{\%} of FLORES+ and 40{\%} of Seed sentences were corrected by expert linguists, with average token divergence of 19{\%} and 25{\%} among changed items. Evaluation of multiple MT systems, including NLLB models and commercial LLM services, showed consistent gains in automated evaluation metrics when using the corrected data. Fine-tuning NLLB-600M on the revised Seed corpus yielded improvements of +6.05 chrF (en{\textrightarrow}zgh) and +2.32 (zgh{\textrightarrow}en), outperforming larger parameter models and LLM providers in en{\textrightarrow}zgh direction."

## Additional language information
|
| 43 |
+
|
| 44 |
+
The data follows the grammatical and lexical norms of standard French, as spoken and written in France. However, for consistency and to align with common practices in related datasets, it adopts a few specific typographical conventions:
|
| 45 |
+
* Dactylographic apostrophes (') are used systematically instead of typographic apostrophes (’).
|
| 46 |
+
* The use of French _guillemets_ (« ») with non-breaking spaces is not strictly enforced, a convention also followed in the French partitions of the FLORES dataset.
|
| 47 |
+
|
| 48 |
+
For authoritative guidance on the French language, the following resources are recommended. For grammar and usage, the primary reference is M. Grevisse and A. Goosse, _Le Bon Usage_ (16th ed., De Boeck Supérieur, 2016). For a comprehensive reference in English, see H. N. Labeau & P. Larrivée, _The Cambridge Grammar of French_ (Cambridge University Press, 2022). For lexicographical aspects, the main monolingual references are _Le Grand Robert de la langue française_ and A. Rey (ed.), _Dictionnaire historique de la langue française_. A standard bilingual reference is the _Collins-Robert French Dictionary_. A recent and comprehensive reference work in English covering the French language in all its facets is W. Ayres-Bennett & M. McLaughlin (eds.), _The Oxford Handbook of the French Language_ (Oxford University Press, 2024). A high-quality open-source spell and grammar checker for French is available via [Grammalecte](https://grammalecte.net/).

## Workflow
|
| 51 |
+
|
| 52 |
+
This dataset was created using a machine translation post-editing (MTPE) approach. Starting from the original English partition of the OLDI Seed Corpus, we generated nine translation hypotheses per segment using a mix of systems: four "traditional" sequence-to-sequence Transformer MT models (OPUS-MT, NLLB-3.3B, NLLB-600M, MADLAD-400-3B) and five hypotheses from large language models (four from Llama 4 Scout using varied prompting strategies, and one from DeepSeek-R1).
|
| 53 |
+
|
| 54 |
+
This diverse set of nine translation candidates for each segment was then presented to post-editors in a custom-built interface. The interface allowed post-editors to select any of the candidate translations, which would then populate a text area for further refinement. This refinement process focused on two key aspects of the target text: improving the fluency of the translations, a non-trivial task due to the many stylistic irregularities and errors found in the user-generated source segments originating from Wikipedia; and meticulously verifying and correcting, through extensive external research, the translation of technical terminology across the wide range of specialized, encyclopedic domains represented in the corpus.
|
| 55 |
+
|
| 56 |
+
As a final step, all post-edited segments underwent a validation pass using the Grammalecte grammar checker interface.
|
| 57 |
+
|
| 58 |
+
This post-editing and validation work was performed by two native French speakers with a C2 level in English. A native British English speaker with a C2 level in French was also consulted to clarify specific aspects of the source segments. Domain experts were occasionally consulted to solve terminological difficulties in highly technical domains.

## Additional language information
|
| 50 |
+
We used el-sozduk.kg, which provides multiple dictionaries including Kyrgyz-English, Kyrgyz-Russian, English-Kyrgyz, and Russian-Kyrgyz. Since Kazakh and Kyrgyz are highly mutually intelligible, we also consulted sozdik.kz (a Kazakh dictionary) to assist with translations and cross-checking. In addition, we used other English-to-Turkic language dictionaries to further inform our translations. Russian was frequently used as an intermediary language, both for dictionary lookups (e.g., via multitran.com for English-Russian) and for clarifying meanings between English and Kyrgyz or other Turkic languages.
|
| 51 |
+
|
| 52 |
+
## Workflow
|
| 53 |
+
Our translation team included six native Kyrgyz speakers: two experienced translators and two students from the Kyrgyz-English Language Program at Kyrgyz-Turkish Manas University. We followed the OLDI (2025) guidelines. The workflow had four stages: (1) machine translation using Aitil (https://translate.mamtil.gov.kg/), a Gemma3-based MT service fine-tuned by Ulut Soft LLC, (2) manual correction by individual translators, (3) team terminology unification, and (4) cross-validation and peer review to ensure accuracy and consistency.
|
| 54 |
+
|
| 55 |
+
## Additional guidelines
|
| 56 |
+
We created a supplementary list of terms—an English-to-Kyrgyz mini-dictionary—for words and expressions that could not be found in any existing English-Kyrgyz or Russian-Kyrgyz dictionaries. This resource is available in the paper's repository: https://github.com/kyrgyz-nlp/oldi-dataset-experiments/blob/main/mini-dictionary.txt
|
| 57 |
+
|
| 58 |
+
Terminology consultation and review were led by one of the co-authors, Assoc. Prof.Dr. Aida Kasieva, Department of Simultaneous Translation, Faculty of Humanities of the Kyrgyz-Turkish Manas University. Her expertise ensured the accuracy and consistency of specialized vocabulary throughout the dataset.

These widely used reference corpora contained numerous issues, including mistranslations, orthographic inconsistencies, overuse of loanwords, and non-standard transliterations. Overall, 36{\%} of FLORES+ and 40{\%} of Seed sentences were corrected by expert linguists, with average token divergence of 19{\%} and 25{\%} among changed items. Evaluation of multiple MT systems, including NLLB models and commercial LLM services, showed consistent gains in automated evaluation metrics when using the corrected data. Fine-tuning NLLB-600M on the revised Seed corpus yielded improvements of +6.05 chrF (en{\textrightarrow}zgh) and +2.32 (zgh{\textrightarrow}en), outperforming larger parameter models and LLM providers in en{\textrightarrow}zgh direction."

## Workflow
|
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
+
The original data was released as part of the NLLB-Seed dataset, where it was incorrectly labeled `tzm_Tfng`. It was relabeled as `zgh_Tfng` after community feedback and additional quality assessment. Please refer to the paper for further information.
|
| 80 |
|
| 81 |
+
The 2025 update submission contains manual corrections of Standard Moroccan Tamazight (zgh) translations that addressed mistranslations, orthographic inconsistencies, overuse of loanwords, and non-standard transliterations in the original datasets. The corrected data includes 997 sentences from FLORES+ dev, 1,012 sentences from FLORES+ devtest, and 6,193 sentences from OLDI Seed, with 36% of FLORES+ and 40% of Seed sentences requiring corrections.
|
| 82 |
|
| 83 |
+
Corrections were performed by expert linguists taking English source sentences as reference. The FLORES+ dev and devtest sets were revised in full in two iterations by two linguists. The OLDI Seed dataset was divided into batches of 1,000 sentences and distributed among three professional Tamazight translators. Quality control was ensured through spot-checking of each linguist's work by another linguist through random sampling. All translators were professional translators and were compensated as part of this work.
|
| 84 |
|
| 85 |
+
## Additional guidelines
|
| 86 |
+
Corrections followed IRCAM standardization guidelines, prioritizing native Tamazight terms over loanwords when available. For loanwords that were retained, proper Tamazight morphological patterns were applied (e.g., appropriate nominal prefixes). Transliterations of foreign words and names followed standardized practices, with particular attention to accurate mapping of sounds not present in Tamazight to their closest equivalents.
