# Vejîn Kurdish Sorani Literature Instructions Dataset

This dataset contains **454,230 instruction:response pairs** in Kurdish Sorani, derived from the [rzgar/kurdish_sorani_literatures](https://huggingface.co/datasets/rzgar/kurdish_sorani_literatures) dataset (22,727 entries, mostly poetry). It’s designed for fine-tuning language models, with a mix of factual queries (e.g., author/book info) and poetic tasks (e.g., reciting or summarizing poems). Content is chunked for longer poems, preserving dialectal richness across Sorani variants.
