ReTraTos is a toolbox to build linguistic resources useful for machine translation (MT): bilingual dictionaries and transfer rules. The induction systems and open linguistic data can be used with the Apertium toolbox to build open-source MT systems.
Input format
The input sentences need to be given in two separate files, for example en.txt for English and pt.txt for Portuguese.
- pt.txt
<s snum=1>Os/O<det><def><m><pl>:1 alunos/aluno<n><m><pl>:2 do/de<pr>+o<det><def><m><sg>:3_4 colégio/colégio<n><m><sg>:5 ...
- en.txt
<s snum=1>The/The<det><def><sp>:1 students/student<n><pl>:2 of/of<pr>:3 the/the<det><def><sp>:3 school/school<n><pl>:5 ...
Usage
ReTraTos_lex
You will need the header and footer of a bilingual dictionary in two separate files, for example, dic_header.txt and dic_footer.txt (see the examples in the package). Example sentences, in the format described above will be in the files en.txt and pl.txt.
$ ReTraTos_lex -s pt.txt -t en.txt -b dic_header.txt -e dic_footer.txt
