The test was conducted using three randomly selected texts (total: ~1000 words): two "good" Wikipedia articles ([https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apertium/apertium-fra-frp/master/tests/200727_WP_MyLife.fra.txt In My Life] and [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apertium/apertium-fra-frp/master/tests/200727_WP_Niger.fra.txt Niger (cheval)]) and the most outstanding article on lemonde.fr at the time of the test ([https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apertium/apertium-fra-frp/master/tests/200727_LM_Pompili.fra.txt Barbara Pompili : « C’est le bon moment pour gagner la bataille écologique »]). The results are surprisingly good, even though the translator still needs work. The reasons for this may be several: the articles may have been easy; the revision (by a native speaker) may have been too acquiescent; the close proximity of the languages and the great variety of Arpitan may make it more difficult to consider the translator's choice wrong than in more distant languages with well-established standards; and, of course, it is a huge advantage to have been able to use an extensive electronic dictionary and to have the help of two great language experts who are very committed to the project.<br> |

There is a noticeable difference in the results in the Wikipedia texts (WER: 13.4%) and the manual (WER: 19.0%). It seems significant that the author of the manual is from the Aosta Valley and uses constructions that are less similar to the French ones (which does not mean at all that his Arpitan is worse than any other variety, maybe the opposite could be sustained). |

Notes[edit]
- ↑ The Arpitan non-Wikipedia corpus contains a few texts in ORB. At the beginning of the project it had 81,670 words. 80% were written by Dominique Stich, and the rest were several sociopolitical texts.
- ↑ The Arpitan Wikipedia corpus contains all the articles written in ORB, except the 366 for every day of year (2375 articles, 347,101 words). My impression is that 75+% of the content is made by bots, so it is very repetitive and little representative.
- ↑ + massive inclusion of np.ant and np.cog (thus the jump in the coverage)
- ↑
The test was conducted using three randomly selected texts (total: ~1000 words): two "good" Wikipedia articles (In My Life and Niger (cheval)) and the most outstanding article on lemonde.fr at the time of the test (Barbara Pompili : « C’est le bon moment pour gagner la bataille écologique »). The results are surprisingly good, even though the translator still needs work. The reasons for this may be several: the articles may have been easy; the revision (by a native speaker) may have been too acquiescent; the close proximity of the languages and the great variety of Arpitan may make it more difficult to consider the translator's choice wrong than in more distant languages with well-established standards; and, of course, it is a huge advantage to have been able to use an extensive electronic dictionary and to have the help of two great language experts who are very committed to the project.

No conec cap revista electrònica en arpità a la xarxa i la Viquipèdia arpitana està escrita amb diferents normes i, a més, acostuma a tenir articles que són simples plantilles. He agafat tres articles (France, Rimbaud i Toquio, ~ 1000 paraules), sobre els quals no havia treballat abans, i he obtingut uns resultats massa bons. És inimaginable que això passi en textos reals, especialment quan s'escriu amb una acceptació molt àmplia de les normes per a adaptar-les a la parla local (el que en diuen "grafia estreta").

The test was conducted using four randomly selected texts (total: ~1600 words): three "good" Wikipedia articles (Cheval au Togo, Élisabeth de Bavière and Nyctalope) and the most outstanding article on lemonde.fr at the time of the test (Pour Emmanuel Macron, un été de crises diplomatiques).

The test was conducted using randomly selected texts (total: ~1700 words): 30 (!) randomly selected Wikipedia articles (200826_WP.fra.txt -- there are no labelled "good articles" in the Arpitan Wikipedia and most of them have 1-3 sentences), adding up 1063 words, and the first three pages of the "manual" of the site arpitan.eu (200826_Manuel.frp.txt), 636 words.

There is a noticeable difference in the results in the Wikipedia texts (WER: 13.4%) and the manual (WER: 19.0%). It seems significant that the author of the manual is from the Aosta Valley and uses constructions that are less similar to the French ones (which does not mean at all that his Arpitan is worse than any other variety, maybe the opposite could be sustained).
