Konkani and Hindi: apertium-kok-hin

This is an Apertium language pair for translating between Konkani and Hindi. What you can use this language package for:

• Translating between Konkani and Hindi
• Morphological analysis of Konkani and Hindi
• Part-of-speech tagging of Konkani and Hindi

For information on the latter two points, see subheading "For more information" below.

Requirements

You will need the following software installed:

• lttoolbox (>= 3.5.1)
• apertium (>= 3.6.1)
• vislcg3 (>= 1.3.1)
• apertium-kok
• apertium-hin

If this does not make any sense, we recommend you look at: apertium.org.

Compiling

Given the requirements being installed, you should be able to just run:

$ ./configure
$ make
# make install

You can use ./autogen.sh instead of ./configure in case you're compiling from source. If you installed any prerequisite language packages using a --prefix with ./configure, make sure to use the same --prefix when running ./configure here.

Testing

If you are in the source directory after running make, the following commands should work:

$ echo "TODO test sentence 1" | apertium -d . kok-hin
TODO test translated sentence 1

$ echo "TODO test sentence 2" | apertium -d . hin-kok
TODO test translated sentence 2

After installing somewhere in $PATH, you should be able to do e.g.

$ echo "TODO test sentence 1" | apertium kok-hin
TODO test translated sentence 1
