The ProverbIT dataset is composed of 100 Italian proverbs. For each proverb we provide four hand-crafted distinct incorrect alternative endings, leveraging the following constructive rationale:
- ALT 1) is an ending that has similar sounds to the original continuation, often with an absurd/nonsensical meaning.
- ALT 2) is a non assonant literal synonym of the original ending.
- ALT 3) is the inverse of the original proverb ending, trying to maintain the assonance when possible.
- ALT 4) is a tautological/trivial ending of the proverb, with no assonance.
From this dataset we developed a benchmark, the ProverbIT benchmark. Results and further details can be found here: https://proverbit.lorenzozane.com/
