 ## How to Load Tigrinya-SQuAD
 
+Install the `datasets` library installed by running `pip install -U datasets` in the terminal.
+
+> Make sure the latest `datasets` library is installed as older versions may not properly load the data.
+
+Then pull and load the dataset using Python, as follows:
+
 ```python
 from datasets import load_dataset
 
 # Load the dataset
-tigrinya_squad = load_dataset("fgaim/tigrinya-squad", trust_remote_code=True)
+tigrinya_squad = load_dataset("fgaim/tigrinya-squad")
 print(tigrinya_squad)
 ```
 
+That will print the dataset features:
+
 ```python
 DatasetDict({
     train: Dataset({
-        features: ['id', 'title', 'context', 'question', 'answers'],
+        features: ['id', 'question', 'context', 'answers', 'article_title', 'context_id'],
         num_rows: 46737

 ### Data Fields
 
-- **`id`**: Unique identifier for each question-answer pair
-- **`title`**: Title of the source article (translated from English)
+- **`id`**: Unique identifier for each question
+- **`question`**: The question to be answered (in Tigrinya)
 - **`context`**: The paragraph containing the answer (in Tigrinya)
-- **`question`**: The question to be answered (in Tigrinya)  
-- **`answers`**: Dictionary containing:
-  - `text`: List with single answer string (training data has one answer per question)
-  - `answer_start`: List with position where answer begins in the context
+- **`answers`**: A list of dictionaries of candidate answers, each entry containing:
+  - `text`: An answer string (training data has one answer per question)
+  - `answer_start`: A starting position of answer string in the context
