## 📂 Source & Processing
|
| 70 |
+
|
| 71 |
+
* This dataset is a **curated blend** of multiple publicly available Sinhala text corpora (\~90%).
|
| 72 |
+
* Combined, normalized, and filtered down to **only Sinhala letters** for maximum cleanliness.
|
| 73 |
+
* Randomly sampled from a larger **283GB raw Sinhala dataset**.
|
| 74 |
+
|
| 75 |
+
⚠️ **Note**: This is **not an original dataset**. It is a cleaned and prepared derivative for easier NLP use.

## ⚠️ Limitations
|
| 86 |
+
|
| 87 |
+
* Contains **only Sinhala** (no multilingual support).
|
| 88 |
+
* Cleaning removed punctuation and numerics — not suitable for tasks that require them.
|
| 89 |
+
* Not exhaustive; represents only a portion of available Sinhala text data.
