Badini Kurdish AI Translation Test 2026 (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude)

What's inside

On 8 November 2026 each assistant got the same request in a new private chat with its default settings: translate the English lines into Badini, and the Badini lines into English. ChatGPT and Gemini ran on their free default models, Claude on Sonnet 5.5 (free) and Opus 5.5 (paid). Scores: chrF similarity to the reference, and a reference-free Sorani check (a fixed list of Sorani forms that flags none of the reference lines). The Badini references were first drafted with Gemini and then corrected by hand; the English lines were drafted with Claude. One run per assistant, so small differences are noise. Files: data.jsonl (lines and every answer), raw/ (the replies as returned), prompts, results.json and score.py.
