Abstract: This paper presents an Italian to Catalan RBMT system automatically built by combining the linguistic data of the existing pairs Spanish-Catalan and Spanish-Italian. A lightweight manual postprocessing is carried out in order to fix inconsistencies in the automatically derived dictionaries and to add very frequent words that are missing according to a corpus analysis. The system is evaluated on the KDE4 corpus and outperforms Google Translate by approximately ten absolute points in terms of both TER and GTM.
