## Applications
|
38 |
+
|
39 |
+
Many open source LLMs do not perform well on relatively uncommon languages such as Sinhala (as of June 2024). This dataset can be used to finetune open-source LLMs for Sinhala language, allowing the models to learn the
|
40 |
+
syntax and semantics of the language and be able to generate coherent and contextually appropriate text in Sinhala. As the dataset contains the original English text too, one may use this dataset to finetune LLMs for
|
41 |
+
translation tasks.
