## Dataset Structure
### Data Instances
```
A random sample from Hindi (hin) Train dataset.
{
'unique_identifier': 'hin1241393',
'native word': 'स्वाभिमानिक',
'english word': 'swabhimanik',
'source': 'IndicCorp',
'score': -0.1028788579
}
```
### Data Fields
- `unique_identifier` (string): 3-letter language code followed by a unique number in each set (Train, Test, Val).
- `native word` (string): A word in Indic language.
- `english word` (string): Transliteration of native word in English (Romanised word).
- `source` (string): Source of the data.
- `score` (num): Character level log probability of indic word given roman word by IndicXlit (model). Pairs with average threshold of the 0.35 are considered.
