# **PolySarc Dataset: Multilingual Sarcasm Detection Corpus**
## **Overview**
PolySarc is a **multilingual sarcasm detection dataset** that contains labeled sentences in **English, German, Italian, Dutch, and Hinglish**.
It is designed for **training and evaluating sarcasm detection models** across multiple languages, making it a valuable resource for **cross-lingual NLP research**.
The dataset includes three key columns:
- **`sentence`**: The textual content of the sentence.
- **`label`**: Binary sarcasm label (`0` = Non-Sarcastic, `1` = Sarcastic).
- **`language`**: Language code corresponding to the sentence.
