| <!-- Provide a quick summary of the dataset. --> | |
| This data set contains demotic sentences in `transliteration`, with `lemmatization`, with POS `glossing` and with a German `translation`. | |
| The data comes from the database of the [Thesaurus Linguae Agegyptiae](https://thesaurus-linguae-aegyptiae.de), corpus version 18, and contains only fully intact, unambiguously readable sentences (15,134 of 31,156 sentences), adjusted for philological and editorial markup. | |

| ## Uses | |
| <!-- Address questions around how the dataset is intended to be used. --> | |
| ### Direct Use | |
| <!-- This section describes suitable use cases for the dataset. --> | |
| This data set may be used | |
| - to create lemmatizers Demotic transliteration => [TLA lemma ID](https://thesaurus-linguae-aegyptiae.de/info/lemma-lists), | |
| - to train translation models Demotic transliteration => German. | |
| ### Out-of-Scope Use | |
| <!-- This section addresses misuse, malicious use, and uses that the dataset will not work well for. --> | |
| This data set of selected intact sentences is not suitable for reconstructing entire ancient source texts. | |
| ## Dataset | |
| ## Dataset Structure | |
| <!-- This section provides a description of the dataset fields, and additional information about the dataset structure such as criteria used to create the splits, relationships between data points, etc. --> | |
| The dataset is not divided. Please create your own random splits. | |
| The dataset comes as a _JSON lines_ file. | |
| ### Data Fields | |
| #### plain_text | |
| - `transliteration`: a `string`, Demotic transliteration, following the [_Leiden Unified Transliteration_](https://www.iae-egyptology.org/the-leiden-unified-transliteration), individual sentence elements separated by space. | |
| - `lemmatization`: a `string`, individual [TLA Lemma IDs](https://thesaurus-linguae-aegyptiae.de/info/lemma-lists) separated by space. | |
| - `transliteration`: a `string`, individual glosses separated by space (for information, see the comments below). | |
| - `translation`: a `string`, German translation. | |
| ### Data instances | |
| Example of an dataset instance: | |
| ``` | |
| { | |
| "transliteration": "ꞽw.w =k (n) bk nṯry", | |
| "lemmatization": "d357 d6496 d2871 d1807 d3323", | |
| "glossing": "V -2sg.m PREP N.m ADJ", | |
| "translation": "Mögest du kommen als göttlicher Falke." | |
| } | |
| ``` | |
| ## Dataset Creation | |
| ### Curation Rationale | |
| <!-- Motivation for the creation of this dataset. --> | |
| ML projects have requested raw data from the TLA. | |
| At the same time, the raw data is riddled with philological markers that make it difficult for non-Egyptological users. | |
| This is a strictly filtered data set that only contains intact, unquestionable, fully lemmatized sentences. | |
| ### Source Data | |
| <!-- This section describes the source data (e.g. news text and headlines, social media posts, translated sentences, ...). --> | |
| For the corpus of Demotic texts in the _TLA_, browse [Demotische Textdatenbank](https://thesaurus-linguae-aegyptiae.de/object/6WFOSXHVQRGGNAG5FCM6QEXWR4) | |
| and see the information on the [TLA text corpus](https://thesaurus-linguae-aegyptiae.de/info/text-corpus), | |
| notably the [PDF overview](https://nubes.bbaw.de/s/xD7MYJrmE8xNBNt). | |
| #### Data Collection and Processing | |
| <!-- This section describes the data collection and processing process such as data selection criteria, filtering and normalization methods, tools and libraries used, etc. --> | |
| This dataset contains all demotic sentences of the TLA corpus v18 (2023) that | |
| - show no destruction, | |
| - have no questionable readings, | |
| - are fully lemmatized, | |
| - have a German translation. | |
| #### Who are the source data producers? | |
| AV [Altägyptisches Wörterbuch](https://www.bbaw.de/forschung/altaegyptisches-woerterbuch), | |
| AV [Wortschatz der ägyptischen Sprache](https://www.bbaw.de/en/research/vocabulary-of-the-egyptian-language); | |

| ### Annotations | |
| <!-- If the dataset contains annotations which are not part of the initial data collection, use this section to describe them. --> | |
| #### Annotation process | |
| <!-- This section describes the annotation process such as annotation tools used in the process, the amount of data annotated, annotation guidelines provided to the annotators, interannotator statistics, annotation validation, etc. --> | |
| The transliteration sometimes contains round brackets (`( )`), | |
| which mark phonemes added by the editor without the addition being regarded as an incorrect omission. | |
| For model training, the brackets, but not their content, may optionally be removed. | |
| #### Who are the annotators? | |
| <!-- This section describes the people or systems who created the annotations. --> | |
| Susanne Beck, | |
| Joachim Friedrich Quack, | |
| Marcel Moser, | |
| Simon D. Schweitzer, | |
| Martin Stadler, | |
| **Günter Vittmann**. | |
| #### Personal and Sensitive Information | |
| <!-- State whether the dataset contains data that might be considered personal, sensitive, or private (e.g., data that reveals addresses, uniquely identifiable names or aliases, racial or ethnic origins, sexual orientations, religious beliefs, political opinions, financial or health data, etc.). If efforts were made to anonymize the data, describe the anonymization process. --> | |
| No personal, sensitive, or private data. | |
| ## Bias, Risks, and Limitations | |
| <!-- This section is meant to convey both technical and sociotechnical limitations. --> | |
| <!-- This section is meant to convey recommendations with respect to the bias, risk, and technical limitations. --> | |
| This is not a carefully balanced data set. | |
| <!-- Users should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the dataset. More information needed for further recommendations. --> | |
