# Twi Words Dataset

The **Twi Words Dataset** is a curated list of over **50,000 unique words** in Twi, a major language spoken in Ghana. This dataset aims to support **Natural Language Processing (NLP)** tasks in Twi, particularly for low-resource language modeling, classification, and lexicon development.

## Purpose

This dataset is created to support:

- NLP development for low-resource African languages
- Spell checkers and autocorrect models
- Text-to-speech and speech-to-text training
- Language modeling and word embeddings
- Educational and lexicographic tools

### Data Fields

Each row in the dataset contains:

| Word         | Frequency |
|--------------|-----------|
| twi_word_1   | 1234      |
| twi_word_2   | 987       |
| ...          | ...       |

- `Word`: A unique word in Twi extracted from a large corpus.
- `Frequency`: The number of times the word appears in the corpus, indicating its usage frequency.
