+# Normalized Georges 1913
+
+## **Description**
+This dataset was created as part of the *Burchard's Dekret Digital* project ([www.burchards-dekret-digital.de](http://www.burchards-dekret-digital.de)), 
+funded by the Academy of Sciences and Literature | Mainz.
+
+It is based on 55,000 lemmata from Karl Georges, Ausführliches lateinisch-deutsches Handwörterbuch, Hannover 1913 (Georges 1913) 
+and was developed to train models for normalization tasks in the context of medieval Latin.
+
+The dataset consists of **approximately 5 million** word pairs of orthographic variants alongside their normalized forms. 
+These word pairs were generated by introducing systematic orthographic transformations, such as:
+
+- **`v ↔ u` substitutions**: Interchanging `v` and `u`.
+- **`ii → ij` / `ii → ji` substitutions**: Modifying digraphs (`ii`) into alternative medieval forms (`ij`, `ji`).
+- **`ae → ę` replacements**: Replacing `ae` with `ę`.
+- **`ti → ci` substitutions**: Transforming `ti` into `ci`.
+- **`mn → mpn` modifications**: Expanding `mn` to `mpn`.
+- **`n → m` changes**: Replacing `n` with `m`.
+- **`y → i` replacements**: Substituting `y` with `i`.
+
+These transformations were designed to provide a dataset for text normalization of medieval Latin manuscript transcriptions.
+
+
+## **Dataset Structure**
+The dataset is formatted as **tab-separated pairs** where each line contains an orthographic variant followed by its normalized form, e.g.:
+| Ortographical variant| normalized form|
+|:--:|:--:|
+|`circumcalcabicis`|`circumcalcabitis`|
+|`peruincaturi`|`pervincaturi`|
+|`tepidaremtur`|`tepidarentur`|
+|`exmovemdis`|`exmovendis`|
+|`comvomavisset`|`convomavisset`|
+|`permeiemdis`|`permeiendis`|
+|`permeditacissime`|`permeditatissime`|
+|`conspersu`|`conspersu`|
+|`pręviridancissimę`|`praeviridantissimae`|
+|`relaxavisses`|`relaxavisses`|
+|`edentaveratis`|`edentaveratis`|
+|`amhelioris`|`anhelioris`|
+|`remediatae`|`remediatae`|
+|`discruciavero`|`discruciavero`|
+|`imterplicavimus`|`interplicavimus`|
+|`peraequata`|`peraequata`|
+|`ignicomantissimorum`|`ignicomantissimorum`|
+|`pręfvltvro`|`praefulturo`|
+
+
+## **Usecases**
+This dataset can be used for:
+
+- Training normalization models for medieval Latin texts.
+- Developing text restoration or correction tools for historical documents.
+- Applying normalization based on Georges 1913.
+
+
+## **Known limitations**
+The dataset has not been subjected to data augmentation and may contain substantial bias, particularly against irregular forms, such as Greek loanwords like "presbyter."
+
+## **Data Splits**
+The dataset consists of a single shuffled split of 5 million word pairs. 
+Users can create their own train/validation/test splits depending on their use case.
