# Latvian WSD
A manually annotated Latvian **word sense disambiguation (WSD)** dataset based on example sentences from the Latvian WordNet.
Each sentence is linked to a specific word sense. Lemmas with only a single sense are excluded. The dataset contains 1,821 lemmas and 5,459 unique senses.
## Data Format
Each example contains:
* `id`: instance identifier
* `entry_id`: entry identifier
* `entry_heading`: entry heading (lemma)
* `context`: sentence containing the target word
* `sense_id`: correct sense identifier
* `candidates`: list of candidate senses, each with:
* `sense_id`: candidate sense identifier
* `gloss`: sense definition
## Splits
The dataset is split by entry to avoid lexical overlap:
| Split | Lemmas | Instances |
| ---------- | -------- | ---------- |
| Train | 1121 | 33,231 |
| Validation | 200 | 6,154 |
| Test | 500 | 14,979 |
| **Total** | **1821** | **54,364** |
