# AGE: Amharic, Ge’ez, and English Parallel Dataset

+
## Overview
|
15 |
+
|
16 |
+
The AGE dataset is an open-source tripartite alignment of Amharic, Ge’ez, and English parallel sentences. This dataset aims to address the lack of high-quality resources for low-resource languages like Amharic and Ge’ez, facilitating the development of Natural Language Processing (NLP) models.

+
|
22 |
+
Our dataset was sourced from diverse materials, and we removed excessively disordered portions to ensure quality. The dataset development process is illustrated in the accompanying figure.
