Nsanku

A project by Ghana NLP to test the machine translation performance of Large Language Models (LLMs) on Ghanaian languages.

Project Overview

Nsanku is an initiative that evaluates how well various open-source language models perform when working with Ghanaian languages. We have evaluated the performance of over 14 open-source and closed models across 43 languages, using at least 300 sentences per language. Paper publication coming soon.

Why Nsanku Matters

As AI engineers work to bring Ghanaian languages into large language models, it’s essential to have reliable evidence on how existing models perform. Nsanku provides insights that help developers identify which LLMs are most suitable for use in translating content in Ghanaian languages, and which languages currently have stronger or weaker support.
