+ # MSQA Dataset Card
28
+
29
+ **MSQA** (Multilingual and Multicultural SimpleQA) is a benchmark of
30
+ **1,064 natively sourced questions** measuring whether large language models
31
+ possess genuine, locally grounded cultural knowledge — as opposed to fluency
32
+ that merely *looks* culturally competent.
33
+
34
+ Every question was authored or curated from native, in-language sources (not
35
+ translated from English), and each has a single verifiable answer.

42
+ | `msqa.csv` | The same data as CSV (UTF-8 with BOM). |
43
+
44
+ A single split is provided: **`test`** (1,064 items).
