Hi Hector! Prompsit Language Engineering has developed a tool to do this based on Apertium. The tool is called "AltLang". I'm not entirely sure if it has been published yet. I would get in contact with them and ask about it. I have put in CC Gema Ramírez Sánchez who was involved in the development. Best regards, and thanks for getting in touch with us.
