# Multilingual TEDx (Portuguese speech and transcripts)
**NOTE:** This dataset contains only the Portuguese portion of the mTEDx dataset, already processed and segmented into parts.
**Multilingual TEDx (mTEDx)** is a multilingual speech recognition and translation corpus to facilitate the training of ASR and SLT models in additional languages.
The corpus comprises audio recordings and transcripts from [TEDx Talks](https://www.ted.com/watch/tedx-talks) in 8 languages (Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Greek, Arabic, German) with translations into up to 5 languages (English, Spanish, French, Portguese, Italian).
The audio recordings are automatically aligned at the sentence level with their manual transcriptions and translations.
Each .tgz file contains two directories: data and docs. docs contains a README detailing the files provided in data and their structure.
Test sets for all [IWSLT 2021](https://iwslt.org/2021/multilingual) language pairs can be found in mtedx_iwslt2021.tgz.
For more information on the dataset please see the [dataset paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.01757).
