XNLIeu extends [XNLI](xnli.md) to Basque. The model still classifies a premise–hypothesis pair as entailment, contradiction or neutral, but the text is Basque. The authors first machine-translated English XNLI, then professionally post-edited that MT, and also built a smaller native Basque test set from scratch so they could check whether MT artefacts change which transfer recipe looks best.
Three-way classification. lm-evaluation-harness uses the same cloze as XNLI: premise + ", ezta? {Bai|Gainera|Ez}, " + hypothesis, scored by multiple-choice log-likelihood. Three runnable tasks: `xnli_eu` (postedited, Hugging Face config `eu`), `xnli_eu_mt` (raw MT, `eu_mt`), `xnli_eu_native` (native test only, `eu_native`).
