# Dataset Card for EuskañolDS

<!-- Provide a quick summary of the dataset. -->

EuskañolDS is a naturally sourced corpus for Basque-Spanish code-switching, created by filtering publicly available corpora in Basque and Spanish. 

## Dataset Details

### Dataset Description

<!-- Provide a longer summary of what this dataset is. -->
Code-switching (CS) remains a significant challenge in Natural Language Processing (NLP), mainly due a lack of relevant data. In the context of the contact between the Basque and Spanish languages in the north of the Iberian Peninsula, CS frequently occurs in both formal and informal spontaneous interactions. 
However, resources to analyse this phenomenon and support the development and evaluation of models capable of understanding and generating code-switched language for this language pair are almost non-existent. We introduce a first approach to develop a naturally sourced corpus for Basque-Spanish code-switching. Our methodology consists of identifying CS texts from previously available corpora using language identification models, which are then manually validated to obtain a reliable subset of CS instances.

- **Language(s) (NLP):** Basque (eu), Spanish (es)
- **License:** EuskañolDS is distributed under the same licenses as the corpora it is derived from.
