apertium / apertium-ind-zlm

Apertium translation pair for Indonesian and Malay

Indonesian and Malaysian: apertium-ind-zlm

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

• Translating between Indonesian and Malaysian
• Morphological analysis of Indonesian and Malaysian
• Part-of-speech tagging of Indonesian and Malaysian

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-ind
• apertium-zlm

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 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 . ind-zlm
TODO test translated sentence 1

$ echo "TODO test sentence 2" | apertium -d . zlm-ind
TODO test translated sentence 2

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

$  echo "TODO test sentence 1" | apertium ind-zlm
TODO test translated sentence 1

apertium-ind-zlm's Issues

Move to three letter ISO codes

This pair should be moved to three letter ISO codes. The right code should be checked as Malaysian has quite a few: msa, zlm, zsm, ...

The following files (at minimum) will need to be checked:

• Makefile.am
• configure.ac
• modes.xml
• README

The pair should also be checked to see if it can be adapted to work with monolingual language packages in languages/
