# Training Data Format  
You can provide training data as Markdown or as JSON, as a single file or as a directory containing multiple files. Note that Markdown is usually easier to work with.

### Data Formats
- **Markdown Format**: Markdown is the easiest Rasa NLU format for humans to read and write. Examples are listed using the unordered list syntax.
- **JSON Format**: The JSON format consists of a top-level object called `rasa_nlu_data`, with the keys `common_examples`, `entity_synonyms` and `regex_features`.

### Improving Intent Classification and Entity Recognition
Common examples have three components: `text`, `intent` and `entities`. The first two are strings while the last one is an array.

### Common Examples
- The _text_ is the user message 
- The _intent_ is the intent that should be associated with the text 
- The _entities_ are specific parts of the text which need to be identified

### Regular Expression Features
Regular expressions can be used to support the intent classification and entity extraction.

### Lookup Tables
Lookup tables provide a convenient way to supply a list of entity examples.

### Normalizing Data
### Entity Synonyms
If you define entities as having the same value they will be treated as synonyms.
