Please explain how ;-) The regular method[1] is to take an lttoolbox analyser, and find the full set of possible input-output pairs using the program lt-expand, and run that through the translator to check for errors. Unfortunately, when your analyser is in SFST/HFST-format -- which opens for lots of "loops" in the analyser -- things get a bit more complicated. Brian Croom's hfst-fst2strings[2] attempts to do something similar to lt-expand, while providing some ways to filter the possibilities. > * How will you make the bilingual lexicon ?

Do come on IRC more so we can discuss the issues and any possible problems you have; we don't want anyone to waste lots of time on something that could be solved by discussing it on IRC :) best regards, Kevin Brubeck Unhammer Footnotes: [1] http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Testvoc [2] http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=AANLkTinYnDtHehxWWAJf25JVXKYaM0Uw95Kzr41jgKZo%40mail.gmail.com&forum_name=apertium-stuff ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enable your software for Intel(R) Active Management Technology to meet the growing manageability and security demands of your customers.
