English and Catalan: apertium-eng-cat

This is an Apertium language pair for translating between English and Catalan. What you can use this language package for:

• Translating between English and Catalan
• Morphological analysis of English and Catalan
• Part-of-speech tagging of English and Catalan

For information on the latter two points, see subheading "For more information" below

Requirements

You will need the following software installed:

• lttoolbox (>= 3.3.0)
• apertium (>= 3.3.0)
• vislcg3 (>= 0.9.9.10297)
• apertium-eng
• apertium-cat

If this does not make any sense, we recommend you look at: apertium.org

Compiling

Given the requirements being installed, you should be able to just run:

$ ./configure
$ make
# make install

You can use ./autogen.sh instead of ./configure in case you're compiling from source. If you installed any prerequisite language packages using a --prefix to ./configure, make sure to give the same --prefix to ./configure here.

Testing

If you are in the source directory after running make, the following commands should work:

$  echo "TODO test sentence 1" | apertium -d . eng-cat
TODO test translated sentence 1

$ echo "TODO test sentence 2" | apertium -d . cat-eng
TODO test translated sentence 2

After installing somewhere in $PATH, you should be able to do e.g.

$  echo "TODO test sentence 1" | apertium eng-cat
TODO test translated sentence 1
