Hi, Apertium is not convincing in the direction fr-es. The first test sentences for the Block World Corpus are better translated by the outdated statistical translation model IBM model 1 in the direction French to Spanish. Apparently, Apertium has some problems with the imperative of verbs and goes for the subjunctive used in negated requests (this problem persists in the omitted sentences):
