# Multilingual Synonyms Dataset (बहुभाषी पर्यायवाची शब्द संग्रह)

## Overview

This dataset contains a comprehensive collection of words and their synonyms across multiple Indian languages including Hindi and Marathi. It is designed to assist NLP research, language learning, and applications focused on Indian language processing and cross-lingual applications.

The dataset provides word-synonym pairs that can be used for tasks like:

- Semantic analysis
- Language learning and education
- Text enrichment and variation
- Cross-lingual applications
- Linguistic research
- NLP model training
- Machine translation enhancement
- Text generation and paraphrasing

## Dataset Structure

The dataset contains the following columns:

- `शब्द(Word)`: The base word
- `पर्यायवाची/समानार्थी (Synonyms)`: Synonyms of the given word (comma-separated)
- `भाषा (Language)`: The language of the word (हिन्दी/मराठी)

## Dataset Statistics

- Format: Available in parquet format
- Split: Single train split (100% of data)
- Languages:
  - Hindi (हिन्दी): 3821
  - Marathi (मराठी) : 2000

## Example Entries

| शब्द(Word) | पर्यायवाची/समानार्थी (Synonyms) | भाषा (Language) |

## Usage

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

# Load the dataset
dataset = load_dataset("Process-Venue/Hindi-Marathi-Synonyms")

# Access the training split
train_data = dataset["train"]

# Get a sample
sample = train_data[0]
print(f"Word: {sample['शब्द(Word)']}")
print(f"Synonyms: {sample['पर्यायवाची/समानार्थी (Synonyms)']}")
print(f"Language: {sample['भाषा (Language)']}")

# Filter by language
hindi_words = train_data.filter(lambda example: example['भाषा (Language)'] == 'हिन्दी')
print(f"Number of Hindi words: {len(hindi_words)}")

# Find words with specific synonyms
words_with_specific_synonym = train_data.filter(
    lambda example: 'गौ' in example['पर्यायवाची/समानार्थी (Synonyms)']
)
print(f"Words with 'गौ' as a synonym: {len(words_with_specific_synonym)}")
```

## Applications

This dataset can be used for:

1. **Semantic Analysis**: Understanding word relationships within and across languages
2. **Text Enrichment**: Generating variations of text by replacing words with synonyms
3. **Cross-Lingual Research**: Studying how synonyms vary across Indian languages
4. **Educational Resources**: Creating learning materials for language education
5. **NLP Model Training**: Improving language models' understanding of Indian languages
6. **Information Retrieval**: Enhancing search by including synonyms in query expansion

## Source and Preparation

This dataset was compiled from various Indian language resources and educational materials. It was converted from a structured text file to a standardized parquet format to facilitate machine learning applications.
