Wikipedia

Wikipedia can be downloaded from downloads.wikimedia.org.

$ wget http://download.wikimedia.org/iswiki/20100306/iswiki-20100306-pages-articles.xml.bz2

You will need to make a nice corpus from Wikipedia, with around one sentence per line. There are scripts in apertium-lex-learner/wikipedia that do this for different Wikipedias, they will probably need some supervision. You will also need the analyser from your language pair and pass it as the second argument to the script.
