However, there is no pattern as to whether this prefix is used in the conventional English form of the name. For instance, Xhosa usually leaves off the isi- in English, whereas Lingala almost never leaves off the li-. Others, like (xi)Tsonga, seem to be frequently used in both forms. Linguistic resources occasionally strip the prefixes, yielding names like "Ganda", "Pedi" and so on, perhaps out of a desire for consistent handling of the noun class prefix. (Even the *ba* in *Bantu* is such a prefix, so these languages are sometimes called the *Ntu* languages!)

This is currently being corrected. * The translations to Mooré (`mos`) contain a mix of orthographies. * The translations into Kituba (`ktu`), Tulu (`tcy`), Nepali (`ne`), and Tibetan (`bo`) caused notable regressions in `ChrF`, suggesting that they are low-quality, though this could also be an issue with training or evaluation. * The Manx (`gv`) split of GATITOS that was originally released was spurious. It has been removed. ### Contact We welcome contributions, corrections, and suggestions, especially from speakers of these languages. If you speak any of these languages and notice quality issues, please file bugs on this repo or contact {icaswell, eknielsen}꩜google.com. This repository may be updated sporadically with corrections or additional translations. ## License This data is released under cc-by-4.0
