Abstract
This work describes the Grial-TA team submission to the constrained track of WMT2026 General Machine Translation Task for the following language pairs: English to-Icelandic, English-to-Ladin and English-to-Ligurian. Our submission leverages full fine-tuning of theSalamandraTA-7b-instruct model. Two separated models were fine-tuned: one for Icelandic and one for Ligurian and Ladin.
