Asturian and Spanish (apertium-spa-ast)

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

• Translating between Asturian and Spanish
• Morphological analysis of Asturian and Spanish
• Part-of-speech tagging of Asturian and Spanish

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

Requirements

You will need the following software installed:

• lttoolbox (>= 3.1.2)
• apertium (>= 3.1.1)
• vspacg3 (>= 0.9.7.5129)

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

You can use ./autogen.sh instead of ./configure you're compiling from git. If you're using a --prefix to ./configure, make sure it's the same one you used to install apertium itself.

Testing

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

$ echo "Esto es una prueba" | apertium -d . spa-ast
Esto ye una prueba

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

$ echo "Esto es una prueba" | apertium spa-ast
Esto ye una prueba

The following command runs tests which are on the Apertium wiki page:

$ ./regression-tests.sh
