This is the LMF version of the Apertium bilingual dictionary for             
Spanish and Portuguese languages. Bilingual LMF dictionaries were            
generated from Apertium bilingual dix files. For each Apertium               
bilingual correspondence, the corresponding source and target                
monolingual entries (LexicalEntry) were generated in addition to the         
bilingual correspondence (SenseAxis) element. Apertium is                    
a free/open-source machine translation platform, initially aimed at          
related-language pairs but recently expanded to deal with more               
divergent language pairs (such as English-Catalan). The platform             
provides: a language-independent machine translation engine; tools to        
manage the linguistic data necessary to build a machine translation          
system for a given language pair and linguistic data for a growing           
number of language pairs.
