Maltese and Hebrew (apertium-mlt-heb)

This is an Apertium language pair for translating between Maltese and Hebrew. It is a work in progress!

Requirements

You will need the following software installed:

• lttoolbox (>= 3.1.2)
• apertium (>= 3.1.1)

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 (GitHub). 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 "ara" | apertium -d . mlt-heb
רואה

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

$ echo "ara" | apertium mlt-heb
רואה

The following command runs tests which are on the Apertium wiki page:

$ ./regression-tests.sh
