The creation of FLORES200 doubles the existing language coverage of FLORES-101. Given the nature of the new languages, which have less standardization and require more specialized professional translations, the verification process became more complex. This required modifications to the translation workflow. FLORES-200 has several languages which were not translated from English. Specifically, several languages were translated from Spanish, French, Russian and Modern Standard Arabic. Moreover, FLORES-200 also includes two script alternatives for four languages. FLORES-200 consists of translations from 842 distinct web articles, totaling 3001 sentences. These sentences are divided into three splits: dev, devtest, and test (hidden). On average, sentences are approximately 21 words long.
