Abstract
In this paper, we present an open-source toolkit to enrich a phrase-based statistical machine translation system (Moses) with phrase pairs generated from the linguistic resources of a shallow-transfer rule-based machine translation system (Apertium). A system built with this toolkit was not outperformed by any other participant in the shared translation task of the Sixth Workshop on Statistical Machine Translation (WMT 11) for the Spanish–English language pair.
