# Multilingual Short Stories

A small multilingual short story catalog curated from the source workbook `file1.xlsx`.
Records with empty or very short text (fewer than 50 whitespace-delimited words) were removed,
language values were standardized to two-letter ISO 639-1 codes, and a `split` column was added
(`train` when `word_count >= 200`, otherwise `validation`).

## Dataset Summary

- **Total rows:** 10
- **Number of unique languages:** 7
- **Train rows:** 6
- **Validation rows:** 4
