+# arabert_c19: An Arabert model pretrained on 1.5 million COVID-19 Arabic multi-dialect tweets 
+**arabert covid19** is a pretrained (fine-tuned) version of the AraBERT v2 model (https://huggingface.co/aubmindlab/bert-base-arabertv02) using 1.5 million multi-dialect Arabic tweets regarding the COVID-19 pandemic obtained from the “Large Arabic Twitter Dataset on COVID-19” (https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.04315).
+The model can achieve better results when dealing with multi-dialect Arabic tweets that are related to the COVID-19 pandemic. 
+
+
+# Preprocessing
+
+```python
+from arabert.preprocess import ArabertPreprocessor
+model_name="moha/arabert_c19"
+arabert_prep = ArabertPreprocessor(model_name=model_name)
+text = "للوقايه من عدم انتشار كورونا عليك اولا غسل اليدين بالماء والصابون وتكون عملية الغسل دقيقه تشمل راحة اليد الأصابع التركيز على الإبهام"
+arabert_prep.preprocess(text)
+```
