# Dataset Card for ASV-CLBSI Bible Dataset
|
6 |
+
|
7 |
+
This dataset contains parallel verses in English and Hmar languages, curated from the **American Standard Version (ASV)** for English and the **Christian Literature by Bible Society of India (CLBSI)** for Hmar. It is structured to facilitate linguistic and translation studies.
|
8 |
+
|

+
|
11 |
+
### Dataset Description
|
12 |
+
|
13 |
+
This dataset provides verse-level parallel translations of the Bible in English (ASV) and Hmar (CLBSI). Each book is saved as a separate CSV file with the structure:
|
14 |
+
|
15 |
+
| en | hmr |
|
16 |
+
|-----------------------------|------------------------------|
|
17 |
+

|
18 |
+
|
19 |
+
- **Curated by:** Donal Muolhoi
|
20 |
+
- **Language(s) (NLP):** English, Hmar
|
21 |
+
- **License:** CC-BY-4.0
|
22 |
+
|
23 |
+
### Dataset Sources
|
24 |
+
|
25 |
+
- **Repository:** [GitHub Repository Link Needed]
|
26 |
+
- **Paper [optional]:** N/A
|
27 |

## Uses
|
30 |
+
|
31 |
+
### Direct Use
|
32 |
+
|
33 |
+
This dataset can be used for:
|
34 |
+
1. Linguistic analysis and translation studies.
|
35 |
+
2. Training or fine-tuning multilingual and low-resource language models.
|
36 |
+
3. Cross-language information retrieval tasks.
|
37 |
+
|
38 |
+
### Out-of-Scope Use
|
39 |
+
|
40 |
+
1. The dataset is not suitable for non-academic or commercial purposes that violate the licensing agreement.
|
41 |
+
2. It is not recommended for tasks requiring contextual annotations, as it only includes raw verses.
|
42 |
+
|
43 |
+
## Dataset Structure
|
44 |
+
|
45 |
+
The dataset consists of separate CSV files for each book of the Bible, named as `<Book_Name>.csv` (e.g., `Genesis.csv`).
|
46 |
+
|
47 |
+
- **Columns:**
|
48 |
+
- `en`: Verse content in English from ASV.
|
49 |
+
- `hmr`: Verse content in Hmar from CLBSI.
|
50 |
+
|
51 |
+
Example CSV structure for `Genesis.csv`:
|
52 |
+
|
53 |
+
| en | hmr |
|
54 |
+
|------------------------------|-------------------------------|
|
55 |
+
| "In the beginning..." | "A tîrin Pathienin hnuoi..." |
|
56 |
+
| "And the earth was..." | "Chun, hnuoi hi a sie..." |
|
57 |
+
|
58 |
+
### Corrections
|
59 |
+
|
60 |
+
During dataset creation, mismatched rows between the ASV Bible and CLBSI Bible were identified and corrected. The discrepancies were found in the following books:
|
61 |
+
|
62 |
+
1. **3 John:** ASV contains 14 verses, while CLBSI contains 15 verses.
|
63 |
+
2. **Ephesians:** ASV contains 155 verses, while CLBSI contains 154 verses.
|
64 |
+
3. **Revelation:** ASV contains 404 verses, while CLBSI contains 405 verses.
|
65 |
+
|
66 |
+
These mismatches were manually reviewed and resolved to ensure alignment in the final dataset.
|
67 |
+
|
68 |
+
### Observations
|
69 |
+
|
70 |
+
The translations, while attempting to be literal, cannot achieve a 100% word-for-word alignment due to inherent grammatical and linguistic differences between English and Hmar. The dataset reflects these nuances and captures the intended meaning as closely as possible.
|
71 |
+
|
72 |
+
## Dataset Creation
|
73 |
+
|
74 |
+
### Curation Rationale
|
75 |
+
|
76 |
+
The dataset was created to promote the preservation of the Hmar language and to facilitate linguistic studies and translation model development for low-resource languages.
|
77 |
+
|
78 |
+
### Source Data
|
79 |
+
|
80 |
+
#### Data Collection and Processing
|
81 |
+
|
82 |
+
- **Source:** The English data was collected from the ASV Bible, and the Hmar data was collected from the CLBSI Bible.
|
83 |
+
- **Processing:** JSON files containing verses were parsed and matched on a verse-by-verse basis to create CSV files for each book.
|
84 |
+
|
85 |
+
#### Who are the source data producers?
|
86 |
+
|
87 |
+
The original texts are authored and compiled by:
|
88 |
+
1. The ASV Bible Committee.
|
89 |
+
2. Christian Literature by Bible Society of India (CLBSI).
|
90 |
+
|
91 |
+
### Annotations
|
92 |
+
|
93 |
+
No additional annotations were made. The dataset consists solely of raw verse content.
|
94 |
+
|
95 |
+
#### Personal and Sensitive Information
|
96 |
+
|
97 |
+
This dataset does not contain personal or sensitive information. It includes only publicly available religious texts.
|
98 |
+
|
99 |
+
## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
|
100 |
+
|
101 |
+
1. **Bias:**
|
102 |
+
- Translational differences between ASV and CLBSI may introduce semantic mismatches.
|
103 |
+
- Cultural and doctrinal differences may influence the translations.
|
104 |
+
|
105 |
+
2. **Technical Limitations:**
|
106 |
+
- Limited to verse-level translations. Contextual analysis may require additional data.
|
107 |
+
- Verses in ASV and Hmar may not always align perfectly due to structural differences in the source texts.
|
108 |
+
|
109 |
+
## Recommendations
|
110 |
+
|
111 |
+
Users should ensure appropriate preprocessing and validation before using the dataset for critical applications.
