Maltese and Arabic

                            apertium-mt-ar
===============================================================================

This is an Apertium language pair for translating from Maltese to
Arabic. What you can use this language package for:

* Translating from Maltese to Arabic
* Morphological analysis of Maltese
* Part-of-speech tagging of Maltese

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

Requirements
===============================================================================

You will need the following software installed:

* lttoolbox (>= 3.1.2)
* apertium (>= 3.1.1)
* vislcg3 (>= 0.9.7.8354)

If this does not make any sense, we recommend you look at: www.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 you're compiling from
SVN. If you're using a --prefix to ./configure, make sure it's the
same one you used to install apertium itself.

Testing
===============================================================================

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

$  echo "Ilbieraħ kien kiesaħ ħafna." | apertium -d . mt-ar
امس كان باردا جدا.

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

$ echo "Ilbieraħ kien kiesaħ ħafna." | apertium mt-ar
امس كان باردا جدا.
