- **Training Set:** 18,309 examples (~8.9GB)
- **Test Set:** 2,035 examples (~992MB)
- **Total Duration:** ~15.5 hours
- **Audio Format:** WAV
- **Text Format:** Arabic script

## Quick Start

```python
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("Tamazight-NLP/Tamazight-Speech-to-Arabic-Text")
for example in dataset["train"]:
    audio, text = example["audio"], example["text"]
```
