Dusun-English-Malay Dictionary and Corpus
A trilingual dataset containing Dusun, English, and Malay words, phrases, and sentences compiled for linguistic research, dictionary development, and machine translation. This dataset is based on the Dusun language as spoken by the Dusun ethnic group of Sabah, Malaysia. While the Dusun dialect in the dataset shares approximately 99% similarity with standardized Kadazandusun, there may be minor differences in vocabulary, spelling, and standardisation. Researchers working on Kadazandusun NLP may find this dataset largely applicable.
Dataset Overview
This dataset contains approximately 26,000 entries including:
- ~9k+ dictionary words with translations
- ~16K+ phrases and sentences with translations
Languages: Dusun (dtp), English (en), Malay (ms)
Curated from DusunDictionary.com for Neural Machine Translation (NMT) model training and language preservation.

Loading the Dataset
from datasets import load_dataset
# Load full dataset
dataset = load_dataset("DusunDictionary/dusun-dictionary-corpus")
# Access data
print(dataset['train'][0])
Filtering for NMT Training
Extract sentence-level data for machine translation:
# Filter phrases only (adjust based on your Type values)
phrases = dataset['train'].filter(lambda x: x['Type'] == 'phrase')
# Create Dusun-English pairs
dusun_english = phrases.map(lambda x: {
'source': x['Dusun'],
'target': x['English']
})
Example Use Cases
- Machine Translation: Training Dusun↔English and Dusun↔Malay models
- Language Preservation: Documenting endangered language vocabulary
- Linguistic Research: Studying Austronesian language structures
- Educational Tools: Building language learning applications
