Recycling Lingware in a Multilingual MT System

• We describe two methods relevant to multilingual machine translation systems, which can be used to port linguistic data (grammars, lexicons and transfer rules) between systems used for processing related languages. The methods are fully implemented within the Spoken Language Translator system, and were used to create versions of the systems for two new language pairs using only a month of expert effort.
