As regards categorial ambiguity, the transfer part of Apertium requires that only one lexical form is present, so the flow you suggest is not currently possible. However, it is possible to train the tagger in different ways (using a hand-tagged corpus, or using the target language [apertium-tagger-training-tools]). In addition to that, there are ways to remove and select lexical forms before the statistical tagger using constraint grammar. As regards polysemy (a property of the lemma), Fran is about to release the lexical selection module he has been developing as part of his PhD thesis. One can use it with handwritten rules, or train it using parallel or monolingual corpora. Best, Mikel -- Mikel L.
