If you'd like to share any of your probabilistic lexicons for Swedish--Norwegian or Swedish--Danish we'd be interested in looking at them. If you have experience in SMT, the word alignments for Europarl for Swedish--Danish could be pretty useful! Especially if you use the lemmatisation step described here: http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Lemmatisation Fran ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Site24x7 APM Insight: Get Deep Visibility into Application Performance APM + Mobile APM + RUM: Monitor 3 App instances at just $35/Month Monitor end-to-end web transactions and take corrective actions now Troubleshoot faster and improve end-user experience.
