Building better translation for Kyrgyz.

Kyrgyz is spoken by millions of people, yet it remains significantly underrepresented in modern language technology. While working on English-to-Kyrgyz machine translation, I found that existing systems can produce grammatical errors, lose nuance, or mistranslate less common expressions. I built this project to improve Kyrgyz translation through better data and open collaboration.

Improving translation through better data.

This project focuses on improving English-to-Kyrgyz machine translation by building and refining a large bilingual dataset. The dataset contains more than 200,000 English–Kyrgyz sentence pairs that can be used to train and evaluate translation models.

Because Kyrgyz is a low-resource language, high-quality bilingual data is especially valuable. Community corrections can help identify grammatical mistakes, unnatural phrasing, missing meaning, and translation errors that automated systems may overlook.

Download the dataset.

The dataset contains 200,000+ English–Kyrgyz sentence pairs. It is provided as a 7z archive for researchers, developers, and anyone interested in working with Kyrgyz language technology.
