	# Normalized Georges 1913

	## Description
	This dataset was created as part of the Burchard's Dekret Digital project ([www.burchards-dekret-digital.de](http://www.burchards-dekret-digital.de)),
	funded by the Academy of Sciences and Literature \| Mainz.

	It is based on 55,000 lemmata from Karl Georges, Ausführliches lateinisch-deutsches Handwörterbuch, Hannover 1913 (Georges 1913)
	and was developed to train models for normalization tasks in the context of medieval Latin.

	The dataset consists of approximately 5 million word pairs of orthographic variants alongside their normalized forms.
	These word pairs were generated by introducing systematic orthographic transformations, such as:

	- `v ↔ u` substitutions: Interchanging `v` and `u`.
	- `ii → ij` / `ii → ji` substitutions: Modifying digraphs (`ii`) into alternative medieval forms (`ij`, `ji`).
	- `ae → ę` replacements: Replacing `ae` with `ę`.
	- `ti → ci` substitutions: Transforming `ti` into `ci`.
	- `mn → mpn` modifications: Expanding `mn` to `mpn`.
	- `n → m` changes: Replacing `n` with `m`.
	- `y → i` replacements: Substituting `y` with `i`.

	These transformations were designed to provide a dataset for text normalization of medieval Latin manuscript transcriptions.


	## Dataset Structure
	The dataset is formatted as tab-separated pairs where each line contains an orthographic variant followed by its normalized form, e.g.:
	\| Ortographical variant\| normalized form\|
	\|:--:\|:--:\|
	\|`circumcalcabicis`\|`circumcalcabitis`\|
	\|`peruincaturi`\|`pervincaturi`\|
	\|`tepidaremtur`\|`tepidarentur`\|
	\|`exmovemdis`\|`exmovendis`\|
	\|`comvomavisset`\|`convomavisset`\|
	\|`permeiemdis`\|`permeiendis`\|
	\|`permeditacissime`\|`permeditatissime`\|
	\|`conspersu`\|`conspersu`\|
	\|`pręviridancissimę`\|`praeviridantissimae`\|
	\|`relaxavisses`\|`relaxavisses`\|
	\|`edentaveratis`\|`edentaveratis`\|
	\|`amhelioris`\|`anhelioris`\|
	\|`remediatae`\|`remediatae`\|
	\|`discruciavero`\|`discruciavero`\|
	\|`imterplicavimus`\|`interplicavimus`\|
	\|`peraequata`\|`peraequata`\|
	\|`ignicomantissimorum`\|`ignicomantissimorum`\|
	\|`pręfvltvro`\|`praefulturo`\|


	## Usecases
	This dataset can be used for:

	- Training normalization models for medieval Latin texts.
	- Developing text restoration or correction tools for historical documents.
	- Applying normalization based on Georges 1913.


	## Known limitations
	The dataset has not been subjected to data augmentation and may contain substantial bias, particularly against irregular forms, such as Greek loanwords like "presbyter."

	## Data Splits
	The dataset consists of a single shuffled split of 5 million word pairs.
	Users can create their own train/validation/test splits depending on their use case.
