Can RASA-NLU be used for Sinhala Language? If needed what should be done?

Thanks again for responding @Juste . I see…I am building this chatbot for a research. That is why i tried to use spacy_sklearn pipeline. ‘Building Word Vectors’ won’t this be possible for me? And I do not have intents, entities or action names with Sinhala characters. my sample domain.yml file is like this. intents: greet goodbye actions: utter_greet utter_goodbye templates: utter_greet: text: “හායි” utter_goodbye: text: “නැවත හමුවෙමු”

Is this exactly how your domain file is formatted? If yes, then the issue is because of the formatting - utter_goodbye is outside the templates section. Can you double check that? Here is how a domain should be formatted.

@Juste …Fortunately after several tries it worked for me. It could be a formatting issue. Thanks for the guidance. And Just today I realised the vedio tutorial I had followed was yours, “Creating a chatbot with Rasa NLU and Rasa Core” , I should mention it was very helpful to me & I followed it. Great work.

Glad to hear that! :slight_smile: Sometimes it’s just a space in the wrong place or an indetnatation that makes it break, but I am glad you solved the issue. Also happy to hear that the tutorial was helpful! :slight_smile:

[image] Juste: there are no word vectors for Sinhala language yet. Isn’t there any possibility for us to develop the word vectors for other languages(in my case i want to develop word vectors for sinhala language) ?

SpaCy allows you to add custom languages. Here is a guide which you can c heck out . Alternatively, you can play around with the word vectors provided by fasttext (I can see they have it for Sinhalese)

Thanks a lot.I will try those out.

@Juste Could you please kindly help me on another issue. I am now using Rasa,the latest version(not Rasa X). Thanks to you guys it is pretty simple now, we can train using rasa train and run bot using, rasa run So i have integrated my bot with slack. When i type simple greet messages it nicely replies. But when there exist an entity , some times the bot stucks there. So is there any mechanism for the bot developer to check what is the error caused. Could you pls simly tell me where the error log is? If you can reply in yr earliest i am very grateful.Thanks.

sir, could you tell me as you told that you made a chatbot with sinhala language what kind of changes you made in rasa structure bcoz i want to make a chatbot with hindi language so i want to know what sort of changes i need to make in rasa to make understand and give response in hindi language. please respond.
