# Interacting with the Masakhane Benchmark Models |
|
|
|
I created this demo for very easy interaction with the [benchmark models on Masakhane](https://github.com/masakhane-io/masakhane-mt/tree/master/benchmarks) which were trained with [JoeyNMT](https://github.com/chrisemezue/joeynmt)(my forked version). |

To include your language, all you need to do is: |
|
1. Create a folder in the format *src-tgt/main* for your language pair, if it does not exist. |
|
2. Inside the *main* folder put the following files: |
|
1. model checkpoint. Rename it to `best.ckpt`. |
|
2. `config.yaml` file. This is the JoeyNMT config file which loads the model an pre-processing parameters. |
|
3. `src_vocab.txt` file. |
|
4. `trg_vocab.txt` file. |
|
|
|
