The Nande portion of CLEAR Global's Gamayun Language Data Kits — 15,000 parallel French–Nande sentences in total, distributed across two independent kit sizes: 5,000 (`kit5k`) and 10,000 (`kit10k`). French source sentences were drawn from the Tatoeba repository using a selection algorithm that ensures representation of the most frequently used words in French; Nande translations were produced by professionals and volunteers of the Translators without Borders (now CLEAR Global) translator community. Each kit TSV is accompanied by a core kit TSV containing the original French source sentences with their Tatoeba IDs. Note that kit sizes are independent selections — `kit10k` is not a superset of `kit5k`. Gamayun is part of CLEAR Global's initiative to develop open-source language technology for under-resourced languages used in humanitarian contexts.

Ethical Review
Source sentences are general-domain content from the openly licensed Tatoeba repository. Translations were produced by professional and volunteer translators from the Translators without Borders / CLEAR Global community, who were credited and (where applicable) compensated for their work.
Intended Use
Development of open-source language technology for Nande, in particular machine translation between Nande and French, as well as related NLP tasks (language modeling, alignment, lexicon induction).
This is the Nande–French kit collection from CLEAR Global's broader Gamayun Language Data Kits initiative, which provides parallel data for under-resourced languages by translating a curated set of general-domain French sentences sourced from Tatoeba. The selection algorithm used to pick source sentences is documented in the corepus-gen repository. Translations were performed by professionals and volunteers of CLEAR Global's (formerly Translators without Borders) translator community.
