Metadix

Metadix (as in files containing the extension .metadix) is a poorly-documented, minor extension of the .dix format of Apertium dictionaries that allows a certain level of parameterization of paradigms in monodixes. Metadixes are converted to the standard .dix format during compilation using XSLT stylesheets.

Metadixes are currently used in some language pairs, such as English-Catalan and Occitan-Catalan.

This article should be expanded with an example.
