  # Arabic Tashkeel Dataset

  This is a fairly large dataset gathered from five main sources:
34
- - `shamela` **(1710.59MB - 42.10%)**:

  - [`tashkeela`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/community-datasets/tashkeela) **(1830.36MB - 45.05%)**: The entire Tashkeela dataset, repurposed in sentences. Some rows were omitted as they contain low diacritic (tashkeel characters) rate.

+ ## Main Uses
59
+ This dataset can be used to train models to automatically add diacritics (perform tashkeel) to Arabic text.
60
+
61
+ ## Limitations
62
+ Over 90% of the dataset consists primarily of religious texts in Classical Arabic. As a result, models trained on this data are well-suited for vocalizing such texts but may struggle with Modern Standard Arabic. Wikipedia articles were added to help ease this issue, though they may not entirely resolve it.
