## Dataset Creation

The original source data consists of English-Welsh human generated translations,
stored as translation memory files in the [TMX](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_Memory_eXchange) format.

This dataset was produced by processing the original translated content through a text pre-processing pipeline,
which includes the following stages:
- Sentence splitting
- Deduplication
- Normalisation (encoding, whitespace, removal of formatting elements)
- LID (Language Identifcation Detection) filtering

### Source Data

TMX file(s) prvoided by [Cardiff University](https://www.cardiff.gov.uk/ENG/Home/Pages/default.aspx), pre-processed by the [Language Technologies Unit, Bangor
University](https://techiaith.cymru).
