Nau · ނައޫ

Open language models for Dhivehi (Þ‹Þ¨ÞˆÞ¬Þ€Þ¨), the language of the Maldives, written in Thaana.

Nau 1.0 writes, translates, summarises and corrects Dhivehi, and runs on an ordinary laptop without an internet connection. It is a 5.4B-parameter model built on Gemma 4 E2B, with a tokenizer extended for Thaana.

Models

  • Nau-1.0: weights for transformers, plus GGUF files for llama.cpp, LM Studio and Ollama

Datasets

  • dhivehi-corpus: 1.8 billion characters of Dhivehi from 25 public websites (news, fiction, religious writing, laws, the Gazette)
  • nau-sft: 386k Dhivehi instruction examples
  • dhivehi-eval: held-out test sets, with model answers

Everything is open for research. The text datasets are gated because the publishers keep the copyright in their articles and stories. To report a problem or ask for a takedown, open a discussion on the repository concerned.
