# FormosanBank
**Short description:**
FormosanBank is a large-scale, machine-readable corpus and tooling ecosystem for Taiwan’s Indigenous Formosan languages—supporting research, education, and revitalization across 16 official languages with multimodal text–audio resources.
---
## Overview
FormosanBank curates standardized, machine-actionable corpora for the Indigenous **Formosan** languages of Taiwan (part of the Austronesian family). The project aggregates, cleans, and structures multilingual text and audio into a consistent XML schema, enabling downstream tasks such as ASR/forced alignment, translation, lexicon building, and pedagogical content creation.
- **Scale:** 8M+ tokens, 730+ hours of audio (across languages and corpora).
- **Structure:** Language-specific corpora delivered in a unified **FormosanBank XML** format with metadata, speaker/source info, and licensing notes where applicable.
- **Tooling:** Quality-control (QC) utilities for XML validation, orthography checks/extraction, token counting, and cleaning pipelines.
