    Presentamos los primeros sistemas de traducción automática para inglés-español e inglés-euskara basados en tectogramática. A partir del modelo ya existente inglés-checo, describimos las herramientas para el análisis y síntesis, y los recursos para la trasferencia. La evaluación muestra el potencial de estos sistemas para adaptarse a nuevas lenguas y dominios.

    We present the first attempt to build machine translation systems for the English-Spanish and English-Basque language pairs following the tectogrammar approach. Based on the English-Czech system, we describe the language-specific tools added in the analysis and synthesis steps, and the resources for bilingual transfer. Evaluation shows the potential of these systems for new languages and domains.
