# COPA-SR

(The dataset uses cyrillic script. For the latin version, see [this dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/classla/COPA-SR_lat).)

The [COPA-SR dataset](http://hdl.handle.net/11356/1708) (Choice of plausible alternatives in Serbian) is a translation of the [English COPA dataset ](https://people.ict.usc.edu/~gordon/copa.html) by following the [XCOPA dataset translation methodology ](https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.00333).

The dataset consists of 1,000 premises (My body cast a shadow over the grass), each given a question (What is the cause? / What happened as a result?), and two choices (The sun was rising; The grass was cut), with a label encoding which of the choices is more plausible given the annotator or translator (The sun was rising).

The dataset follows the same format as the [Croatian COPA-HR dataset ](http://hdl.handle.net/11356/1404) and [Macedonian COPA-MK dataset ](http://hdl.handle.net/11356/1687). It is split into training (400 instances), validation (100 instances) and test (500 instances) JSONL files.

Translation of the dataset was performed by the [ReLDI Centre Belgrade ](https://reldi.spur.uzh.ch/).
