# These 2 Datasets are from VLSP Evaluation Campaigns for Machine Translation Shared Task

## 1) VLSP 2022
**Task Description:**  
- Machine Translation Shared Task: 
Chinese-Vietnamese Machine Translations (Chinese - Vietnamese and Vietnamese - Chinese): The participants need to deal with a scenario in which we do not have much data. Furthermore, since Chinese and Vietnamese can be considered similar languages to some degree (e.g., many Sino Vietnamese words have a 1-to-1 mapping in meaning with their Chinese counterpart), participants could employ unique methods for similar language pairs in this task.

## 2) VLSP 2023 
**Task Description:**  
- Machine Translation Shared Task: 
We will feature two sub-tasks this year on Lao-Vietnamese Machine Translations (Lao - Vietnamese and Vietnamese - Lao): The participants need to deal with a scenario in which we do not have much data. Furthermore, since Lao and Vietnamese can be considered similar languages to some degree (e.g., many Vietnamese words have a 1-to-1 mapping in meaning with their Lao counterpart), participants could employ unique methods for similar language pairs in this task.
