Hello @emmadedayo, for NLTK please refer to the README. Please note that NLTK will need some extra efforts if you've installed it for the first time.

you will need to run python3 from your terminal and do:

 >>> import nltk
 >>> nltk.download('punkt')

This will download the necessary NLTK parts ... otherwise you'll have the error below

Resource punkt not found.
Please use the NLTK Downloader to obtain the resource:

Let me know if that helps.

@emmadedayo If it will be helpful, I can upload a video that shows the steps in closer detail. Let me know how you get one with the setup. Cheers.

okay @ruohoruotsi, have done it but still showing error

[ruohoruotsi]

@emmadedayo this error is not related to NLTK. The error says to "Please check the path of your train src and tgt files". Since the NLTK issue is resolved I will close this issue.

Regarding the most recent error: I will upload a video that shows the expected output starting from cloning the repo and running the build script.

Okay @ruohoruotsi,pls upload video

@emmadedayo
(1) Please study the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lh7XFc7S_8Y, as I clone 2 repos (having already installed dependencies & NLTK) to get the newest code
(2) then I run the training script.

It is important to check the first errors you encounter, for example above in your error-output, your data preprocessing step is failing. You have to debug why. If you follow the steps on a clean system, tested on Linux/Ubuntu & MacOS, you shouldn't meet any problems. Let me know how you get on, and we'll work to resolve all issues.

@emmadedayo I have added a Quickstart using a pre-trained model (so you don't have to train your own model). Please try this short Jupyter notebook and see if it can help out. Cheers
