The Makerere Gendered Corpus: A Gendered English to Luganda Parallel Corpus

This English-Luganda parallel sentence corpus consists of gendered examples created by a team of researchers from Makerere AI Lab at Makerere University with a team of Luganda teachers, students and freelancers. The collaborative work which involves generating English sentences under CC-0 and translating these sentences using a crowdsourcing, iterative and opensource approach was done using Pontoon an opensource Translation Management System built by Mozilla. This is a corpus of 1,000 parallel sentences.
