Reddit Sentence Similarity Scores Dataset

This dataset contains Reddit sentences scored for similarity to spoken dialogue and written forum communication. It was created for the EMNLP 2025 paper, though the authors note it was not used in the final results. Early experiments showed no significant gains versus smaller C4 and Subtitle training sets.

Use Cases

• Training models to distinguish between conversational and formal written styles
• Analyzing linguistic features of online communication platforms

Strengths

• Provides similarity scores along two stylistic dimensions
• Based on a large-scale platform (Reddit)

Limitations

• Specific scoring methodology details are not fully described in the input
• Dataset scale (row count) and specific source subreddits are unknown
• May reflect biases inherent to the Reddit platform and its user base
