In January this year, speech recordings and transcripts for the #Kurdish language dialects #Kurmanji and #Sorani were published:

Any organization who build a language model from that? Is #LibreTranslate member of the linguistic data consortium?

KASET - Kurmanji and Sorani Kurdish Speech and Transcripts - Linguistic Data Consortium

Introduction KASET - Kurmanji and Sorani Kurdish Speech and Transcripts was developed by the Linguistic Data Consortium (LDC) and consists of approximately...

New language options in Mastodon 4.2:

- Add ᏣᎳᎩ ᎦᏬᏂᎯᏍᏗ and Хальмг келн to posting languages

- Fix the duplicate "Kurmancî" entries in all language selections. kmr has been removed and ku was kept

- Posts can now be filtered for 简体中文, 繁體中文(香港), 繁體中文(臺灣)and 廣東話 separately

Thanks to @ClearlyClaire and @renchap for their help with code reviews & migrations

This nice small book has two languages in it - Kurmanji and English! Wish I would have found more books like this so the studying of language could be more interesting (I'm really bad at studying languages).
Book is called "The Meaning and Symbolism of Colors in Yazidism" and it is written by Hussain Zedo and translated from Kurdish by Dana Hasan (Wate û Sembolîya Rengan di Êzidîtîyê de - Hisên Zêdo, wergera îngilîzî Dana Hesen).
Published by Hinar 2017, Qamişlo. 78 pages. It was also an interesting read as it was about Yazidism traditions which I still do not have so much of knowledge about.

Sûn Tzû - Hunera Şer (Sun Tsu - The Art of War). This small sized book is published by YPG to it's sodiers to get familiar with thoughts of the world's best known war manual. And it sure is important to know as most likely all the war strategists have read this book. The book by Sun Tsu (Chinese: 孫子兵法 Sūnzǐ bīngfǎ) is the oldest war manual that has survived to this day and it sure is a timeless classic in my opinion. I have read it few times (different translations and editions) and last time was actually just before heading to Rojava. This edition that YPG has published has no detailed information for book maniacs like me but then again, I guess it is not that important as the fact that soldiers read it. Most likely it is the translation from the version (or manuscript) from the era of Song dynasty as it has only 13 chapters. The more larger edition from Han-dynasty usually has 5 extra chapters. Translator to Kurmanji language nor the publishing year is not mentioned. #Rojava #AANES #YPG #Kurmanji #Sun-Tsu #War #Books
