In this paper, we explore the rich diversity of Arabic dialects by introducing a suite of pioneering models called Lahjawi. The primary model, Lahjawi-D2D, is the first designed for cross-dialect translation among 15 Arabic dialects. Furthermore, we introduce Lahjawi-D2MSA, a model designed to convert any Arabic dialect into Modern Standard Arabic (MSA). Both models are fine-tuned versions of Kuwain-1.5B an in-house built small language model, tailored for Arabic linguistic characteristics. We provide a detailed overview of Lahjawi’s architecture and training methods, along with a comprehensive evaluation of its performance. The results demonstrate Lahjawi’s success in preserving meaning and style, with BLEU scores of 9.62 for dialect-to-MSA and 9.88 for dialect-to- dialect tasks. Additionally, human evaluation reveals an accuracy score of 58% and a fluency score of 78%, underscoring Lahjawi’s robust handling of diverse dialectal nuances. This research sets a foundation for future advancements in Arabic NLP and cross-dialect communication technologies.
