+# Multilingual Task-Oriented Dialog Data
+
+## Directory structure
+
+This dataset consists of 3 directories:
+* `en` contains the English data
+* `es` contains the Spanish data
+* `th` contains the Thai data
+
+In each directory, you'll find a file for each of the train/dev/test splits as used in our paper.
+
+
+## File format
+
+PYTEXT parquet FORMAT
+
+Each parquet file contains following 5 columns: intent label, the slot annotations in a comma-separated list with the format `<start token>:<end token>:<slot type>`,
+untokenized utterance, the language, and the token spans from an in-house multilingual tokenizer.
+
+The "upsampled" files contain the upsampled Spanish/Thai data so that there are roughly equal amounts of English and Spanish/Thai data for training and model selection.
