# EN-TR Translation Dataset
## Dataset Overview
This dataset is based on a subset of the Helsinki-NLP/opus-books dataset, which includes copyright-free books aligned for translation purposes. The original dataset contains multilingual sentence alignments. Specifically, I extracted the English-Italian (EN-IT) portion of the dataset, translated the English sentences to Turkish, and created an English-Turkish (EN-TR) parallel corpus.

The dataset can be used for various natural language processing tasks such as translation, machine learning, and multilingual text alignment research.

## Dataset Statistics
Languages: English (EN), Turkish (TR)

Number of Files: 1

Number of Sentence Pairs: 32332

Original Source: Helsinki-NLP/OPUS Books
