# Dataset Card for Saudilang Code-Switch Corpus (SCC)
## Dataset Summary
The **Saudilang Code-Switch Corpus (SCC)** is a **5-hour** transcribed audio dataset featuring informal Saudi Arabic speech with **code-switching to English**, sourced from the **"Thmanyah" YouTube podcast**. It was created for evaluating models in multilingual and dialectal speech settings, such as **ASR**, **language identification**, and **code-switch detection**.
## Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
This dataset is suitable for testing models in:
* **Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)**
* **Text-to-Speech (TTS)**
* **Speaker Diarization**
* **Language Identification**
* **Dialect Detection**
* **Code-Switching Detection**
## Languages
* **Arabic (ar)** – primarily Saudi dialect
* **English (en)** – code-switched within Arabic speech
## Dataset Structure
### Data Fields
* `audio`: The raw audio recording (e.g., `.wav`)
* `text`: The original transcription including both Arabic and English content
* `cleaned_text`: A normalized version of the transcription
* `environment_type`: Acoustic environment in which the speech was recorded (Clean, Music, or Noisy)
* `speaker_id`: An anonymized identifier for the speaker
* `speaker_gender`: Gender of the speaker (all of them are Male)
### Splits
* **Test Set Only**: \~5 hours of annotated, transcribed speech
*(This dataset is designed primarily for evaluation purposes.)*
## Dataset Creation
### Source and Curation
The dataset was curated from naturally occurring podcast conversations and **transcribed by the National Center for Artificial Intelligence at SDAIA**.
### Motivation
Given the scarcity of high-quality Arabic-English code-switching resources, this dataset was developed to address that gap and enable progress in speech technologies for bilingual Arabic users. Publishing SCC demonstrates a commitment to enriching Arabic digital resources and enabling the development of AI models that are more linguistically inclusive and reflective of real-world usage.
